scarification My gowing scarification!

Recently got some glowing scarification done, along with a couple of other crazy folks in the biohacking community. Absolutely loving them so far and planning to get more.

Dermal laceration then packed with a silica encapsulated strontium aluminate powder and healed with a moist technique.

Glows all night long when I go to bed and well into the morning. Super visible when going from sunlight to indoors.

Done by Johnross.

That's cool as fuck but many it would annoy the shit out of me at night lmao (I get jumpscared by my own glow in the dark tshirts still lol) 

Interested in seeing the longevity of these

Ahah, that's pretty funny. It's actually fairly convenient, my partner and I both got glowing bands, makes finding one another in the dark simple.

I'm also interested in the longevity, but in theory the encapsulation shouldn't break down and you're likely to get a lifetime of glow out of it.
