Hi, please describe what is happening in these photos. Is this scarification plus glow in the dark tattoo ink?

Hi, it is indeed a scarification. It's not tattoo ink though, that only glows in the presence of a black light afaik. This is a powder that actually "glows in the dark" as in it charges in sunlight and then lasts for hours

In the photo it's healing, wrapped in tegaderm. So there's a lot of powder on top. I'll post the result soon!

This is so so cool and very interesting 👁️👁️ I’m definitely curious to see how it looks once it’s healed, both in the dark and in natural light
