This Aug. 22, 2006, photo provided by Freedom-2, Inc., shows Martin Schmieg, President and CEO of Freedom-2 in Yonkers, N.Y., sporting his first tattoo created by tattoo artist Carrie Kaplan of Big Joe and Sons Tattooing. The durable, but easily removable tattoo was made using dyes created in the laboratory of Brown University Professor Edith Mathiowitz. (AP photo/Freedom-2)
The permanent but removable ink is made by storing dye in microscopic capsules that will stay in the skin for good. But if that butterfly tattoo on the small of your back starts looking lame, it can be zapped away with a single laser treatment that is simpler and less painful than the barrage of treatments now needed.
