Dear All,

A surgical colleague is keen to get analysis of an ink to determine the cause for :

‘a very strong widespread local reaction to a red professional tattoo ink. ……The reaction is clearly ‘whole body’ because he’s also had a strong reaction at the sites of previous distant tattoo sites at opposite ends of his body.’

Does anyone have any experience to share in this area? Either analytical or clinical?  I’d happily give someone a call to discuss….

At the moment I am unclear if I can get this analysis done or what use it would be.

Thanks in anticipation…

Best wishes, Lou
