Serious question. If a tattoo is ink that gets put into your skin, won’t your tattoo fade away because your body naturally shreds old skin?
In: 4
No. Only your outer layer of skin, your epidermis, sheds dead skin cells. Tattoo ink is deposited in your dermis, which is below the epidermis. Cells in the dermis do not shed. Tattoos do fade eventually given enough time, but for other reasons.
