BME: Body Modification Ezine

A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

  • Complex Ear Reconstruction

    Gabriele at Max Art in Italy (who you know best for the SkinTunnel project) recently performed a rather tricky ear reconstruction. The surgery involved both bridging two piercings into one, as well as repairing the damage from a piercing that tore out some time earlier. Once it’s healed, the client will be able to put in a new tunnel and no one will be the wiser — and hopefully they will have learned a valuable lesson about responsible stretching! Or getting in fights — I don’t actually know how the damage occurred.

    I don’t quite know what it is — maybe he just has one of those friendly faces — but there’s something really welcoming about Martin Kraus’s horn implants, now in their second generation. They were done by Chai Calm Bodymod and are fresh and a bit swollen in this photo, so they almost look like ridges but they’re actually multiple beads. For me this is a good photo to show that heavy mods don’t have to look “freaky”. Of course I do see the world through mod-coloured glasses, so maybe I’m not the best judge?

    There’s something strange about this photo from Enzo and Thiago. I don’t have anything particularly clever to say about it, so just look at it and draw your own conclusions.

    Morbid from Street Tattoo & Piercing in Warsaw has really outdone himself with this scar.  The lines are nice, clean, and even, which should hopefully result in a beautiful scar.  Hopefully we’ll get an update from him for a future follow-up.

    Joeltron (FirstBlood.com.au, joeltron.com) shows us his teeth — yeah, he’s no Zygzag, but this is how Joeltron looks when he takes out his 13mm (1/2″) cheek piercing. If I was him I would totally wear clear glass plugs all the time or maybe tunnels with corks conspicuously stuck in them, especially if the size continues to increase. And gosh, I really love his eye tattoo — that lime green is one of my all time favorites.
