2.4 Purpose and contraindications
2.4.1 Purpose
The purpose is the minimally invasive
injection of sterile or aseptic pigment
color of mineral or organic origin into the
dermis by means of micropigmentation
(tattooing).
The skin does not bear any open wounds
given the minimally invasive puncturing
of the epidermis (top layer of skin) and
dermis (middle layer of skin). Therefore,
the skin needs only a very short regen-
eration phase during which the epithelial
function is quickly restored.
