Thanks, yeah it’s quite odd.

I had my baby two years ago and after giving birth I started breaking out in hives in just the two on my leg and it was like that for months then spread everywhere but attacking the tattoo outlines. Started doing acupuncture and it got better, but still occasionally get it on two on my legs. Both those have blowout as it was heavy handed work. Wonder if it’s hormones or immune system changes? Never had this happen before except both these two were bad healing with lots of scabs and had to use cortisone? Any one can help? Very worrisome thank you

Yep, me too. We all wish we can go back in time... I feel good we will be ok.

Yes, heavy scabby...very bad. At time I didn’t care what was in the ink or know. I was only interested in look. So did go over it a couple of times thinking it would look better but didn’t know. The white looks like skin and I’m very white and scabs that came out scared it. So hopefully all good for future health, but think it will he just fine considering millions of folks with white ink., And yeah you’re prolly right will end up getting rid of it overtime through my body since it’s affecting me now.

It looks same to me. I healed very bad, rejecting alot of it, so went over it a couple times (now wish I had no white, but can’t take it back) but still lots of ink. Looks Beige now, but still the same and it’s four years old. And yeah, laser would be all that once. Would rather have it be slow released to be honest. I’m sure we will be okay from it, smoking is worse and lots of people have white In them and now in their 80’s. I’m just concerned about the feeling I get with the pins and needles and it does get raised periodically. Makes me obsess over it.

It is only white no colors at all, just white ink. And It’s odd cause I don’t have issues to my color ink, and I am full of it. I am sure some has titanium but could just be large amount That’s causing issues. Not sure. Thanks for your advice and I am sure that the titanium won’t hurt us. It will only be released in small increments over time. 😊 but yeah for future going to stick with black so no reactions.

I have asked before about white tattoo ink, but want to ask again because recently it’s been really affecting me. I have been having tingling in both my white tattoos on my body. 5 by 7 for one (lots of ink) and 3 by 3 other. The tingling comes and goes but last around 10 hours. It has been happening day after day. It is worrying me. I do think my body rejects the white ink. When I got it done it didn’t want it and so went over it again, but it scared bad. I regret It now, because it’s not pretty and this tingling all of a sudden started after 3 years of getting the tattoo. So very odd. Maybe it’s the large amount of white? Anyone can help, that would be greAt. I know where is titanium dioxide so maybe having an allergic reaction to it?????? The tingling is just so odd. Thank you!!

That’s interesting. Yeah, I am interested in the nano level as well.

Has anyone had a tingly sensation years later to white tattoo ink? Just recently (been 3 years) since my tattoo have I started to have tingling sensation on the white part of it. So odd. I read online that people can have allergic reaction to titanium dioxide years later and that can be a symptom (looked into dental implants which were made of it and leg implants) Anyone encounter this? Also sometimes the ink gets raised as well. Thank you.

Ok, thanks! 😉🙏 And checked out your tattoos, very dope! You have amazing work done

Ok, yeah mine flared up bad on the legs and now changed colors to a beige. On the arms I no issue. Maybe it was a healing issue for the legs because farther from heart??? It was pure titanium dioxide, he made the ink, but I guess that’s all whites. Mine was a good artist too. Your tattoo sounds rad

That’s goof you didn’t have any bad reactions, Yeah I had a huge piece done on my leg and then lots of little bunnies on my arms part of a sleeve. Never highlights, The white tuned light brown. My number one concern is cancer from the white. It’s not appealing, I agree —I would not get white again.

I am new to this forum but heavily tattooed in color and black I have white on both my arms and a large white circle on my leg 6 by 6 surrounded by black. The white didn’t heal well at all, as when i did it in 2015 was rejecting most of the ink. The white is pure titanium dioxide and now I regret ever getting any white after reading what titanium does in body. I don’t think glycerol was used because mine healed with so bad with cuts and blood. Anyone have white for a long time and would like to get your thoughts. Supper worried about white now. Thanks

I have a blowout on my leg should I cover it up or just let it be? Been there for two - three years hasn’t moved. I am more worried about the ink spreading more into my body (health purpose) than the look. Anything I should do? Cover up? Or will I be ok.
