Removal of UV Tatoos edit
Is this possible at all? And how exactly is it done?
I've also heard people refer to it as "Luminol". Perhaps this should be included in teh article. --nocturnal omnivorous canine 17:29, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
-Look into the laser removal process and see how it works.. I would think that yes the ink could be neutralized, but the scarring stays
How long do UV tatoos last? edit
Incorrectly listed that the FDA has "approved" UV tattoo inks - this is patently false edit
There are many websites and claims that UV tattoo ink is "FDA Approved". This is false. The US FDA has *never* approved a tattoo ink. Although the FDA technically has jurisdiction to require pre-market approval of tattoo inks, the FDA has chosen not to pursue or enforce this at the present time. Claims that UV Tattoo Ink are FDA "approved" are completely fraudulent. A search of FDA 510(k) premarket notifications does not validate the claims that such an approval exists. If such an approval exists, then the validate 510(k) premarket notification should be referenced to this article.
Remove link to Chameleon site edit
Sorry guys, I've got to flag that one. As much as it's true and all that, it smacks of advertising, and Wikipedia is trying to avoid that. If someone can come up with a referenced argument for it that doesn't cite an ink vendor (point us to the FDA tests!) that would work.
