Microdermal Implant

[MathewS]

Hey guys,

I got my first piercing/mircodermal implant last week

What do you think of it? Any body else thinking of getting one?

[Gemrlou]

Thats pretty awesome tbh, Painful? I want one, or two, or three haha.

[MathewS]

No pain at all, it was less painfull than a scratch from giving some blood.

[Gemrlou]

Never given blood.... =/ haha.
It'd be well cool to have them like down ur back or something.
Oooooh.
IDEAS!!!!

What wrong with it?


You can have them practically anywhere you want, if you can get a pinch of skin then it's probably possible to have one there, ive seen some on fingers.

Why does it have all that part under your skin to just have a small piece showing? Just curious.

Aint it clear from the picture?

Theres a huge ass metal bolt shoved inside the skin, there should just be skin.

I'm not anti-all piercings but this is bordering on mutilation.

Say hello to your new friend, Gangrene. There have been more cases of Gangrene caused by Microdermal Implants in the last 5 years then Tattoos in the last 10.

That doesn't surprise me.

And is it just me, or does it just look a bit, umm, oddly placed. It just looks like someone just decided to stick it wherever was easiest.

Eww eww ow.

That part under the skin is not actually that large, and it needs to be there to keep it in place.


Regarding the gangrene, if you look after it and keep it clean then you wont have a problem with it, if you leave it once its been put in without cleaning it what do you expect to happen. Ill keep this thread updated with new pics to show that nothing has happened to it.


Also regarding the gangrene, the implants that those that have had gangrene probably did not use sterilised equipment, all the equipment (the needle and the grips/tongs) were put in an autoclave before use, including the implant.
