The Friday Follow-up

The beauty of scarification is that the end result can never be fully predicted.  Sure you can get an idea of what a scar is going to look like if you have scars already, but even then there are so many variables that can affect healing.  Sometimes you’ll get a scar that is perfectly defined and with the colouration you were hoping for.  Other times your body just says, “hey, this is how I’m going to heal this scar, deal with it”.  The reason I’m bringing this up is based off of IAM:Polareyez‘ comment on the latest photo of her snail scar.  To give you a bit of backstory, the scar (which is actually a combination cutting/branding by Brian Decker), started out as all scars do, as an open wound.

A few months later, it was well into the healing process and was turning a pale pink colour.

And now here we are today, 10 months since the initial cutting and as you can see, it’s lightened up even more.

You may need to move your monitor around to see it, but it’s there.  What’s worth noting is that even though this isn’t the exact colouration that Polareyez was going for, the details Brian put into the scar are still well defined.  I’d even go so far to say that it’s looking a lot better than it did several months ago, if only for the consistent colour.  Fans of pale scars will certainly appreciate this scar.  As I mentioned earlier, scarification isn’t something that can be predicted with 100% accuracy, but that shouldn’t discourage you from committing to a scar if that’s the modification you’re looking to get.  You never know, you may end up with something that surpasses your expectations.

If ya like it then you shoulda put a ring in it.

I know, I know, I have made only a handful of post and here I am posting yet ANOTHER implant by xpurex. The audacity of me!

Here’s the thing though, the lotus was amongst the coolest of all the recent submissions that Rob didn’t beat me to posting and this finger implant is so freaking rad I would be doing a disservice to the entire modblog readership if I neglected to post it.

I can not even fathom the amount of time he must have spent carving that teensy tiny silicone implant but as you can plainly see, it was well worth the effort! To get the skin to connect into that itty bitty little circle is an amazing triumph for both practitioner and client alike. Will these little finger implants be “the next big thing” in “extreme body mods” like the ear implants have become? Only time will tell, but I can definitely see a lot of people requesting these subtle little implants!

At this point in my life there are not too many “extreme body mods” that I actively consider getting. For instance, scarification doesn’t hold up well on me, transdermals had to be cut out of my head and eyeball tattooing simply freaks me the hell out. However, the one “extreme mod” I still could see myself getting is a new subdermal implant. I LOVE the little ear flat implants for instance. I am also planning on swapping out my old school titanium circular barbell implant in my hand for a newfangled silicone one of identical shape and size. My left had used to have a Titanium cbr until months later I caught a bad case of cellulitis in the hand, freaked out and cut that bastard out! Had I known then, what I know now I would have just taken some cephlex and bada bing, it would have been better. Anyhow, I am currently lasering off the tattoo on the hand and that has me thinking I’d like to do a detailed silicone implant on that hand then tattoo over it.

This lotus implant. done by the only man I’d trust to do such a thing on me personally, XPureX, has been under the skin for two years and looks absolutely awesome! It definitely has gotten my creative juices flowing and it has helped to respark my interest in getting a new one myself!

It took me a few minutes, but I’m pretty sure the writing on the inside of that hand-heart says “Sacred”.  Oh, and the scar, that’s by the birthday boy, Brian Decker.

Since today is Brian Decker‘s birthday, and he’s one of the biggest contributors to The Friday Follow-up, this week’s post is just for him.

So from all of us here at BME… Happy Birthday Brian!

Oh and what the heck, here’s one of the scars he did back in November.  Hopefully it’ll remind him to send in more healed photos.
