It’s been a really long time since we’ve had an x-ray photo of implants on ModBlog. This was sent in by Definesad, however no further information was given, so I don’t know who to credit for the implants. But we do get a pretty cool picture out of it, so it’s not a total loss.

Magnets! How do they work? It must be magic, or something else. Remember to have faith in your body modification artist, for they can do incredible things. You know, like make a zombie finger magnetic.
This discreet magnet implant was done by Damien Kenny from Outer Rim BodyMod in Nanimo, BC
It’s amazing how shadows can affect how we perceive a person’s face. Take a look at these two photos of Roman_hertz. In the first, the light above his head darkens the lower third of his face and his eyes, giving him a stoic look. As if he just stepped forward out of the darkness.
Now look at this second photo. From what I can tell, his facial expression hasn’t changed, but the angle of the light has. The stoicism from before has now been replaced by a look of longing. He wants to be in the light, as he has been in the darkness for so long. He’s also wary, as the light is new, and unfamiliar.
Of course it doesn’t hurt that he’s a good looking fellow, with a great assortment of transdermal and subdermal implants.
Keep your eye on the Oreo. You are getting sleepy.. sleepy.. very very sleepy.
Ok, so maybe xFBx isn’t trying to hypnotize you with a cookie, but he is enjoying his magnetic implant that was done at First Blood in Sydney, Australia.
I really enjoyed doing the interview with Alan Macias, and was perusing BME to find other people who might make for a good interview. That’s when ran across this new picture of NoMan Pan. You may recognize him as he is no stranger to modblog. With the picture was the following description:
The first stage in my transformation process into a Western Diamondback Rattler.
The facial tattooing was done by Christine Starnes of Custom Tattoos From the Soul in Austin, Texas, which is apparently the place to be for
So NoMan Pan, I left a comment on the wall of your facebook fan page, but I couldn’t find a single other way to contact you so if you happen to come across this post and want to do an interview with me, please shoot me an email sean@bmezine,com.
Apologies for the ICP lyric, but it’s been a while since we’ve had a story about magnetic implants I couldn’t help myself.
Rata, from Rata Body Art Studio in Buenos Aires, recently spent a couple of months working in Florida as a guest artist. On his last day in Florida, Pinhead and Johnny Vilonius decided to surprise him by giving him some magnetic implants as a parting gift. Rata has had his work featured on ModBlog before a couple of times, but I believe this marks the first time that he’s been the subject of the photo, not the artist behind the work featured.
Thanks to Johnny for sending in the photos. According to him the procedure only took 10 minutes, and he was on a plane back home the very next day. The first image is of Rata looking at his fingers, and the second is of Pinhead inserting the magnets.

The title for this entry was the caption arkangel666 used with this photo. She looks a little sad to me but maybe she’s just contemplating life. No artist credit given for any of the mods however I think it’s worth just sitting back and appreciating the view in this case.

Well hello there! Many many thanks to Arseniy Andersson for this submission. We’ve got some large stretched lobes, some nipple piercings, music tattoos, microdermals and implants, oh my! Most importantly, we’ve got a beautiful boy sporting all of these things!
One more after the jump!
..so why would you get magnetic implants without giving them a try right away?
These magnetic implants were done by alienboy, who you may remember from one of his many modblog features or this interview.
On a side note: These magnetic implants were a fairly recent submission so I assume they are the newer generation of magnets that have not been known to have the same coating failure issues the initial batch did.
There is an age old debate on BME as to whether or not breast implants fall into the same category of body modification as the mods more frequently covered on BME. The point that is usually argued is that breast implants are done to fit into societies ideals, whereas tattoos and piercings are more or a rebellion to those same ideals. Of course, since those original arguments were made tattoos and piercings have become a major part of mainstream society. Whether it be the extremely common piercings or the tattoo imagery that is now printed on everything from t-shirts to high end purses, our subculture is quickly being integrated into mainstream culture.
Well these pictures certainly qualify as body modification, by any sense of the definition. A masculine appearing man getting breast implants, now that is going against societies norm! Well unless you do it for money.
These pictures were submitted in 2004 by IAM:manybodiedman (who no longer appears to be on IAM).
For 2 more shots of these implants, keep on keeping on.
