Serious skin rashes after a blacklight tattoo
I got a large black light tattoo a couple months ago and serious skin rashes started to appear all over my body 2 days after i got my phosphorescent tattoo. I was thinking maybe I should get dialysis or take radiation pills. any advice? I had perfect skin my entire life for this tattoo! not even acne!

@neokevin Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.
Quite an impressive piece of body art. However, the dyes used for this type of tattoo are not FDA approved, and can indeed cause the type of reactions you are experiencing. Were you aware of the possible side effects prior to getting needled?
You may want to check with a reputable dermatologist in your area, to get their professional opinion on how to handle the reaction you have. They might to try a steroid type of topical cream to help clear things up.

4 ReactionsI've been to 3 dermatology clinics and they've given me several creams/steroids but nothing seems to help. I want to get dialysis to see if it can clean my blood of this (and everything else kidneys cant Handel like micro plastic and toxic trace heavy metals)
