uPATCH PLUS applicator applies microneedle tattoo's at CipherX Launch event
Last week, uPATCH's CTO and Design Engineer, Bart van Oorschot and Maarten Smit , attended the launch event of CipherX Technologies 's pain-free tattoo technology. During the event, attendees had to opportunity to experience a new way of getting permanent tattoos: "The world's first pain-free tattoo". Instead of using traditional needles, CipherX's technology is based on ink-loaded microneedle array patches (MAPs) that dissolve into the skin, thereby releasing the ink. To enable controlled and consistent application of these MAPs, uPATCH customised a PLUS applicator specifically for their technology. It was great to see so many people at the launch, with more than 100 attendees receiving their first pain-free microneedle tattoo, including Bart! A huge congratulations to the whole CipherX Technologies team, including Ferdinand Kohle , Karl-Anton Harms and Hemal Dias , for reaching this important milestone. We’re proud to have contributed to this innovative technology and it was a pleasure to be part of this special occasion!
