Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

The fact is that sometimes procedures go bad and have to be reversed… Transdermal “implants” (I put it in quotes because they’re not quite implants; more like really intense pocketings) are one of those procedures that seems to be more problematic than most. Here’s an example where four transdermal implants sunk in and completely grew over. My friend Howie (aka Luna Cobra) — who emphasizes that he did not install them — took them out.
Note to self: Update BME/Risks.

“All ages” doesn’t have to mean that kids are allowed — it also means that seniors are welcome… One of the cool things about body modification is that it’s an activity that spans every demographic group out there. Here’s a seventy-five year old grandmother recently pierced by IAM:Karnage — and don’t forget the woman we documented last month who got pierced for her hundredth birthday.

How about a couple of tattoos inspired by websites (not counting BME logo tattoos, which I think are a little different maybe because they’re more inspired by a subculture than a website)… IAM:bebe dog (who is also called Shannon and is also from Toronto) had this tattoo of their own site (now expired I think) done by Gen at Planet Ink in Toronto, and Atomika had Andy Enos at Old Anchor Tattoo in Portage MI do this toothpaste for dinner comic.

And I can’t forget the BMEgirls department of ModBlog — today let me introduce French heavy-modded supervixen Liztaylor8. She’s a suspension artist, has heavy scarification work, transdermals horns, and lots more! Click to download a poster from a recent photo shoot.
