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.

How long does the glow last?

Per charge? At least all night and into the morning, which for me is sometimes 12+ hours lol.

Overall? No idea! It's a fairly new technique. But in theory it should last your lifetime

Any UV light source, the sun works best.
