John Durante did this wicked facial scarification and peeling on Rafa (not this one) whilst on the road in Monterrey, Mexico.
Another shot lives just after the break..

I love it, I haven’t seen anything like that before, very tribal!
that is just too good
Love it! and you know it gets better with age
That’s neat, must hurt to sneeze or make any big facial expressions though.
Ohhheer- I’d love to see how this looks fully healed.
Didn’t Shannon post this not too long ago? I don’t know why, but I’m sure I’ve seen this before, and I only subscribe to one body modification blog. Either way, thank you for keeping the post frequency up! Love seeing all the updates 🙂
Cheers.

waiting to see tthese scars healed.
Symetrical…a thought occures to me everytime i see somebody with heavy facial tattoos and scars,(not that i consider this heavy) but what do most of these guys do for a living, we cant all surely be tat artists and musicians??
I imagine it’ll look great healed. But right now all I can think is it must feel like having a sun-burnt nose; ucky.
would love to see how those heal
Gorgeous, I too would love to see an update once these are healed. I really like how simplistic the design is and yet still manages to be so powerful.
is anyone else thinking DS9?
I would want to pick at those if they were on my face.
While thats healing and he’s walking around town, I love to think of how many people will look at him and think: ‘my god, how did that happen to his face?’
that’s beautiful, and he’s beautiful. i love the nose cuttings more, but it would look a little incomplete without the forehead. simple scarification is the best, and the best kind of mods are those that make the wearers more attractive.
1. Ow ow ow ow ow.
2. Yum.
3. /claps for symmetry.
Looks fantastic! I’m a big fan of really simple facial scarring and tattooing, and this flows really well with his features.
YES DS9!
oooh i cant wait for a healed photo!
Im sure Ive seen this posted already and another one of the posts above it.
Still looks good though.
That is savage!
It looks amazing and i hope it heals well ^_^
It’s look stupid, u make ur face become disable looks like devil
Very nice looking! I’m very curious to see what it looks like healed.
I’ve had a very similar idea in my head for years for my own face — basically the same three stripes on the nose, but pointing upwards instead of downwards.
I hope you’re enjoying it. 🙂
