      WOW... what will they come up with next? So this is like a skin graph but it looks like a tattoo?? Yeah thats pretty ewww... but I guess it looks better then want a regular skin graph looks like, thats for sure!!! So even tho we would never have something like that I can see where someone that was in need of skin graphing would. Really weird tho... my uncle would have loved that, about 50% of his body was skin graphed after an electric wire fell on him. The niced man you ever want to meet but the children are so scared of him because of his hook for a hand and the skin graphs.

        Fascinating technique, though.

            I personally would never want any of these...they look like cheap plastic stick ons....but, ya know, some people will buy anything, and as long as there's a market for it, there ya go....

              so do they come off again? the prototypes just look like big bruises to me. i wonder how or if this technique could help people who have scarring of their skin?

                Ok so it says that these are sealed, so I would assume that they just stick on and can be taken off like jewelry. It does look like something my kids get out of a vending machine. Although I guess it wouldn't wash off you would just take it off. But if they don't find some way to make it blend better with the skin under, like in the last picture that just looks bad, then I think it will soon be relegated to the kids and young teens.

                  I can certainly see the potential in this when it comes to medical things, like skin grafts....but to think that this could be used as a decorative thing just doesn't sit well with me. It's too....science-fictiony or something.
