You should be making the implant according to a specification and one that would tell you what was allowed to color it.
I suspect that this is a formal anodize, not the cosmetic one that can use nearly any solution.
If you are not conforming to strict specifications, I hope that your product never enters the USA.

We can help you to set a small in-house processing line for color anodizing and for gray color anodizing for medical implants. See attached pictures.
