Since if you only implant spheres they can travel out of alignment before they heal in place and ruin the entire idea. Hence a thin piece of teflon would be better. However, you'd still have to place it under the dermis so the raised effect would not be very pronounced on most places on the body (because of the thickness of the dermis) unless you use hemispheres far larger than what's in regular braille text.

What she describes is an implant, implants are implants, tattoos are tattoos. Either way it seems like a quite backwards thing to do when you have options such as scarification instead. They would require less invasive procedures, create better results and be fairly permanent. Implants need to be released at some point, it's important to point out that the outmost majority of all implants (subdermal and especially transdermal) are temporary and the amount of time you can keep them can vary quite a lot from person to person.

Apparently the art world now has it's modern equivalent of rap music (and just to be clear - that's not a good thing).
