Brass Knuckle Implants / Anchors
No, not the drive-commentors-crazy sort of brass knuckle implants, but a series of dermal anchors across the knuckles by Johannes Skindeeplove at Chronic Tattoo in San Diego, CA.
Microdermal Closeup Photos
I’ve posted a few of these microdermals and dermal anchors lately. For those of you not up on the technology, it’s sort of half way between transdermal implants and single point pocketing. The strong advantage over transdermal implants is their non-invasive nature — no secondary incisions, sutures, or special tools are needed. Here’s a gorgeous titanium and blue opal example, outside and inside the body by James Wisniewski at Body Electric in Hollywood, CA.
Clit-knocker Dermal Anchor?
I like this piece conceptually a lot, but I’m not sure that a dermal achor can take that kind of abuse? I guess we’ll find out, but personally I think a piercing would be how I’d go for this modification… Although if it this works it’s much prettier. Procedure by Didier at Enigma San Diego, CA.
First Microdermals in Place
Check out these new “microdermals” (jewelry by JD) by John at Scarab in Syracuse, NY. My feeling is that transdermals, at least the current “labret clover” technology, have too low a success rate, so I’m very interested in dermal anchors like these (which even if they don’t have a higher success rate in the end, at least are easy to remove, unlikely to go toxic, and don’t leave a major scar).
Dermal Anchor Finger Ring
I can’t imagine this will last long (when I had knuckle piercings I banged them even just on pockets constantly), but check out horrorbusiness‘s dermal anchor by Karl Schmidt at Puncture Body Piercing on the Sunshine Coast, QLD, Australia.
“Eye Boogie”
It’s not often these days that I get to post what I consider to be an entirely “new” piercing, but thanks to Ben Trigg at House of Color in Colorado Springs, I’ve got one for you today. I’ll post more on it later, but here’s what he calls an “eye boogie” (if I’m reading what I’m seeing right, it’s closer to a single-point pocketing or a transdermal than an eyelid piercing by the way)…
