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.

Gorgeous Forehead Implants!

I think I posted the before picture of the big 1 1/4″ labret being put in the day before yesterday (sort of a funny photo) — thus the swelling — but I really wanted to share the after portrait because I really love the implants! These were implanted by Steve Haworth and made custom for him by Jesse Jarrell. Forehead reshaping (be it by implants, piercings, tattoos, scars, whatever) is one of my favorite body modifications…

    his lip doesnt look too comfy there…looks like its a circle and im sure he’ll have a hell of a time adjusting to it because i did just stretching.

    i have a 1 1/4″ lip too and its taken me a while to adjust to it over time.

    Stephanie..

    I just wanted to comment on something you said. I’m all for the article, but you mentioned “except if you’re in the body modification feild, obviously nothing wrong there!”

    Well.. i won’t name names, but in my region i’ve spoken to a few bodmod artists who have gotten alot of greif from their bosses for looking “too scary” “too freakish” and that if they didn’t take out or tone-down the mods, they would either lose their jobs or be punished in some way, like working only on less busy days. When I say mods, i mean piercings, tattoos, hair style, clothing, etc. Its rather pathetic, but I suppose these bosses only have money on their minds, the idea being that if the artist looks too scary, people won’t want work by him or the shop. Sad truth.
    SO, i’d love to hear from some heavily modded individuals who work in the feild anyways, see if they have ever gotten greif or been told anything negative about them.

    two cents!

    I hadn’t though of that, but then I’ve never heard anything like that from the people in modification fields that I know. If they have relevant experiences or advice to share, I think that would be very interesting and should definitely be included!

    it looks silly. I love piercings and body modification, but this guy is not in a dateable state looking like this.

    Matt isn’t worried about dating. He was worried about his visage in a huge public forum like this though. Largely speaking, he doesn’t want everyone in the world to see him. But now that it’s been publicly dropped, I may post more detail on the implants as they are some of the only pieces I’ve done in the last few years. Almost 100% computer designed except for an initial pencil sketch from Matt.
