A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Patrick’s Implant and Piercings

Patrick from Denmark has some of the most intense facial mods — tons of piercings, transdermals, and subdermals — of anyone I know, and it’s been fascinating, because he’s been a BME contributor now for quite some time, I’ve been watching it evolve, get sort of chaotic and off balance for a while (sorry), and now come back into focus in what I think is becoming a really mature and great looking set of mods.

    I want to see him make various facial expressions.

    I agree with Simon, although I often like it when people have many facial piercings, in this case I feel like its too much. I personally like it when piercings accentuate, or look like they belong on the person’s face. Here it just looks cluttered. I think maybe if the balls were smaller, or if he took out just a couple piercings it would be more aesthetically pleasing.. but maybe thats not what he’s going for. Plus beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so if he likes all his peircings, and it makes him happy, then thats what matters.

    Power to ya patrick.

    He looks like a modded version of my history teacher. I don’t mind the bridge being off center, I think it makes his face look more interesting than if everything was just in perfect symmetry.

    I wonder how the inside of his mouth/gums/teeth will hold up with all those piercings… i know several people including myself who over time had irritated/receeding gumlines and chipped teeth from mouth related piercings…..

    m – Are you counting the forehead? That looks more like something subdermally like transdermals or something.
    ANd his face is too cluttered for my taste.

    opinion..

    Nothing at all is off in this picture.
    Its all exactly where it should be.

    Granted any two points make a line but there are a number of locations where the balls of the jewely make a line:

    Bridge (aka Earl) to Eyebrow barbell ball
    Medusa to Verticle Labret to Low Labret

    My eyes were drawn straight to the bridge. That isn’t a bad thing. It just stands out from the rest of the symmetry.

    I wouldn’t get so much done, myself, and I think it looks a bit busy on him. Which also isn’t a bad thing.

    He has quite a project done, quite successfully and it suits him. I agree with the post above. “Its all exactly where it should be.”

    seriously, well put, “a really mature and great looking set of mods.” it certainly is fascinating how his work doesn’t look cluttered. stunning and beautiful. often times work this intense and numerous looks like it hasn’t been well thought out. but this looks pretty perfect.

    I think it might not look so obtrusive if smaller sized balls were used.

    I am all for the “to each their own turn of phrase” but I myself personally think that it’s too much.
    At least the symmetry is there. However, I think the bridge looks like it’s on it’s way out personally. A shorter bar would hang better.
