Transdermals can be trouble

An active lifestyle will probably make your life longer, but the counterpoint is that it’ll make your piercings’ and implants’ lives shorterTiff says that’s exactly what led to the demise of her paired transdermals — you can see how far they’d rejected in the first two shots. Tom Brazda (TomBrazda.com — he also removed my magnets) removed them for her while he was guest spotting at Eternal Ink in Sheffield, UK.
