The very common tattoo is a type of body alteration that involves injecting ink, dyes, and/or pigments into the skin’s dermis layer to create a design. The practice of adding tattoos to the skin is known as tattooing.

Tattoos can also be used for identification, such as branding livestock with tattoos on theirAhmet Cambaz may have come late to the tattoo industry, but he has already shown to be a great ink artist. A tattoo equipment set presented to him by his wife in 2013 created a shift in his creative vision, and his real artistry began to come through after 7 years of creating cartoon work for an Istanbul-based magazine.

The drawings Cambaz creates are simple yet magnificent, with a decidedly modern vibe that also reminds us of the charming storybooks we used to read as youngsters. He told Vice Creators, “My tattoos are micro style, geometric, and straightforward.” “We are living in a perplexing era. That is why I prefer to use simple lines in my work… Everything now needs to be simplified. “The tattoos make up for their lack of color and convention with calm, unassuming beauty.

The American Academy of Dermatology distinguishes five types of tattoos: traumatic tattoos, also known as “natural tattoos,” which result from injuries such as asphalt from road injuries or pencil lead; amateur tattoos; professional tattoos, which are done using both traditional and modern tattoo machines; cosmetic tattoos, also known as “permanent makeup,” and medical tattoos.

Process

Tattooing is the process of applying colour to the skin’s dermis, which is the layer of dermal tissue underneath the epidermis. Pigment is spread over a homogenized damaged layer down into the epidermis and upper dermis after first injection, where the presence of foreign material prompts the immune system’s phagocytes to consume the pigment particles. As the injured epidermis peels away (removing superficial pigment), granulation tissue develops deeper in the skin, which is eventually transformed to connective tissue via collagen development. This heals the upper dermis, where pigment is held inside successive generations of macrophages, eventually accumulating in a layer just below the dermis/epidermis border. Its presence is constant, but over time (decades), the pigment migrates deeper into the dermis, resulting in the loss of detail in older tattoos.
