Radioactive gas, in a glass capsule, inside your body?
Nope. Nope. Nope.
Itās definitely a risk, but with proper planning some risk could be reduced. For myself the magnets and the glow are worth an occasional YOLO.

While I respect peopleās ability to make their own choices about what goes in their body, I choose not to make the xGLO because I would have a problem with making such a thing and having the inevitable eventually happen inside a customer.

I completely respect that. Iāll be patiently waiting for the next safe longterm glowy thing.

All that aside, Iād probably get one given that I actually work with the stuff is mildly amusing
How about the silicone glowies from Haworth, like the one on my wrist? There are beautiful little stars available, might be suitable for your private parts

I wasnāt considering them for down there, but eventually I plan on getting some of those stars, I originally wanted to have them in my arms, but idk now cause Iām not sure how tattooing over / around them would go. Depending on how flat they are though, that could actually be a really good idea though

Thank you for the recommendation. I had never heard of them, but I looked them up. My only hesitancy with those would be finding someone to install them in any location within a reasonable distance.
I had a 3 hour 1 way drive to get a magnet injected. Some other things Iām interested may require a 9 - 10 hour trip to New York from North Carolina.
I know of a plastic surgeon in Mississippi that may be willing to install them, if thatās closer than NY I have no sense of distance so not sure if it is haha (after further review Iām pretty sure itās not closer so disregard)
āAroundā should be little problem - you can move them slightly, or stretch the skin slightly. Might be a bit annoying for the tattoo artist, but possible. āOverā themā¦ dunno, I wouldnāt do it instinctively, but technically, it should even be possibleā¦ the implant sits below the skin, tattoo ink is injected in the skin, so if the artist is careful it might be okay. Still nothing Iād try out, but maybe ask your tattoo artist if he would be willing to try.
The thickness varies a lot, but if youāre thinking about the little stars, they are very flat. I planned on making a line with them, leading from my power button upwards, and my artist refused to do that because they would be totally invisible under the slightly thicker skin of my arm. They are suitable for hands or head placement, or maybe genitals I guess 
Hope you like them! I seriously think those would look great as a genital modification 
But yeah, getting them installed in the US might be troubleā¦ maybe you can try to contact Steve directly and aks if he has any recommendations?
Otherwise, a short trip across the ocean, and I can recommend someone in Germany

glow wise or physical outline wise? Iām actually a fan of it not being two distinctive of an outline, as long as I can see it glow
Physical outline wise, at least thatās what he told me. He never installed any glowies until me, so he wasnāt even sure how well the bigger power button like would glow - but thatās actually surprisingly good.
I think the flatter stars might sink into the tissue enough to not be visible at all, physically, but I donāt know how much they will glowā¦
Depending on the location in Mississippi it could be a little closer or farther, but thank you for the offer. I have a friend with family in New York so Iād probably take him with me and head north just for that reason between these two options.
Thank you again for another great idea.
Germany is definitely on the list of places Iād like to visit. I am hoping to take an extended trip through Europe next year if all other variables work out.
If you have no possible way to get stuff done in the US, it might be worth a try - my artist resides in Cologne, itās quite a big city and definitely worth a visit, so if you plan on visiting Germany, I guess youāll end up there anyways
It might be a good idea to plan ahead a little bit though, heās sometimes a bit busy
