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.

Filling in the holes

We’ve seen earlobe reconstructions.  We’ve seen tongue split reversals.  Isn’t it time we see something else?  How about repairing up the divots left behind by facial piercings?  In this case, cheek piercings.  Leave it to Samppa to come up with a way to do it.

On the right is one of the holes before the repair, and the left is just after it had been closed up.

And here is the end result..

While there is still a small mark, unless you’re looking for it you would never suspect a hole had been there.

Samppa’s US tour is still underway, so get in touch with him if you have any facial holes you want fixed up.

Also, keep an eye on ModBlog.  Next week we’re going to take a look at his navel removal procedure, including step-by-step photos.

    quality: i totally agree with u. i hope that too. and i hope that ppl understand that even if im able to fix their ugly scars, it doesnt mean that they can now happily go and ruin their faces with cheek piercings.

    warghuul: dimbles yes, but scars,like a bullet holes are far from dimples in my opinion… and btw, this girl still has a dimples when she’s smiling…

    There’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension.

    First suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal.
