Tattoo ink stays in the skin through a process called intradermal pigmentation, where the ink is deposited into the dermis layer. At Kairos Tattoos, we understand the science behind this process and ensure that our clients’ tattoos are expertly executed to achieve long-lasting results. During tattooing, the tattoo machine’s needles puncture the skin at a controlled depth, delivering ink droplets into the dermis layer. Unlike the outer layer of skin (epidermis), which sheds and regenerates over time, the dermis is relatively stable and does not undergo frequent turnover. This stability allows the ink particles to remain permanently embedded in the skin, creating a lasting tattoo. The ink particles are too large for the body’s immune system to remove, so they remain trapped in the dermis indefinitely. Additionally, the ink’s chemical composition plays a role in its permanence, with certain pigments being more resistant to fading than others. At Kairos Tattoos, we use high-quality, professional-grade ink that is specifically formulated for long-lasting results. Our skilled artists employ precise techniques to ensure that the ink is deposited evenly and securely into the skin, resulting in tattoos that maintain their vibrancy and clarity over time. With our commitment to quality and excellence, clients can trust Kairos Tattoos to deliver tattoos that stand the test of time and continue to look great for years to come.
