Is this safe to pack into wounds? Or is this a safe™ situation?
I mean… this is exactly what you’re doing when using it with scarification / cuttings. As to the “safety” of it… this particular application has not been specifically tested in a clinical trial. As such, it’s being provided with no particular suggestion as to its use case or safety therein.
I can say I had this exact thought the other day when I banged up my hand real good.

Haha, I was referring to deliberate wounds in this case, I suppose.
I’ll have to weigh the risk personally then. I’m between the powder and xGlow at the moment. Some kind of luminance-over-time graph under or in skin (or simulated skin) comparing the implant and powder would be cool. Or maybe a timelapse.
The idea that I can remove the implant is appealing, if there did end up being some complication with the powder breaking down I assume it would be a hassle to remove.

that’s in the works 
yeah… in theory you’d need to remove tissue… likely a lot of it.

update on comparison between xGlow and glow powder…

I’m assuming that the powder is brighter because it ends up closer to the surface of the skin, right?
very likely… or rather, the powder ends up distributed through the entire epidermis and dermal layer, whereas implants are sitting solidly under the dermis in the hypodermis fascia tissue.

I didn’t even see the xGlow when I was shopping last week. That much more user friendly for me. I’m thinking through what to do with my powder. My tattoo artist is doing his research as well.
