Bad-ass Brass Knuckle Implants
Written by
Earlier today I was looking at some fancy-pants Rhinestone brass knuckles on boingboing. If people think that’s cool, check out Krissy’s implanted silicone brass implants by Joe Amato in Florida. You may also remember Joe as one of the gonzo piercers who brought us eyelid piercing.
The procedure took a few hours (after which Krissy went back to work the same day) with most of the time being spent laying anchor stitches to reduce shifting. Healing was uneventful with some bruising and swelling for the first week. Mederma treatment is starting soon to minimize the insertion scar.

Screw the mainstream!
Written by
Check out more fashion-ready photos of IAM:Reby on her page. The piercings you see were done by Alex at Triple X Tattoo in New York City, where Reby is currently apprenticing (and looking for volunteers) — before this she was a professional model, but as she says “my fixation with mods is probably going to get me kicked out of the mainstream.”

Webbed Toe Piercings
Written by
I don’t know if it moves me into an exploitative way of thinking, but I really enjoy seeing a combination of developmental abnormalities and body modification. This is a simple example on Scarlet, a pair of piercings between fused toes, done by IAM:PiercedPirate (Zak at Tattoos Unlimited in Morehead, KY). It’s still healing in the photo here but he tells me they’re doing fine now.
