The tattoo develops over the following days. 💥 Would you try this? Start up CipherX has designed a machine it says delivers the world's first painless tattoo. The system uses a patch embedded with microneedles arranged in your chosen design. The patch stays on your skin for around 10–15 minutes before being peeled away, leaving the tattoo behind. At first, the lines appear faint, but over the next couple of days the pigment develops to reveal the final design. The team now hopes to collaborate with tattoo artists on designs that work within the device's capabilities. "The sweet spot is these smaller, iconographic tattoos." #Tattoo #TattooArt #TattooDesign #tattooartist #tattootiktok
