Done by me on a friend. She healed super hypertrophic, but must of it (except the center) eventually flattened out!

Now it's finally fully healed I can show my newest tattoo. I've had issues with SH for many years now but I recently hit my longest I've ever been clean which was 309 days. This tattoo is a way to reclaim my scars from something dark and horrible with some humour instead. I do have a dark sense of humour so it isn't for everyone but it's definitely for me. This makes tattoo number 8.

I’ve been asked about updates on this scar from last year - this picture is from today, one year and two months into healing on an awesome client!

Made by me

I know dermals won't last forever, but I was itching to add some light to my circuit tattoo. Because I couldn't find any on the market that were at all decent, I made my own anchor top. I used a flat disc titanium top and mixed up some quality resin and this really great glow powder. Took about 24 hours to cure, then I just had to sanitize it. The glow powder charges well from just my phone's flashlight and lasts a good while. It doesn't even need to be dark to glow.

Hi folks, just wanted to share my 2 years healed scarification piece. My friend was so kind as to take some lovely photos of it. I really was surprised how raised it healed, but love how it turned out :)

Still had a little regrowth this time around but overall happy to have a deeper split c:

What do you guys think ? Also got my jestrum done last summer

Recently got some glowing scarification done, along with a couple of other crazy folks in the biohacking community. Absolutely loving them so far and planning to get more.

Dermal laceration then packed with a silica encapsulated strontium aluminate powder and healed with a moist technique.

Glows all night long when I go to bed and well into the morning. Super visible when going from sunlight to indoors.

Been a bit of a journey for me healing wise, but now she's settling beautifully. Done by Steve Truitt this past August. Can't wait to get the other side done!

1st post got deleted but here’s a healing update! Ngl I’m a little disappointed that nothing drastic or a keloid has happened since all the abusive face scrubs I’ve been doing daily (last pic) hopefully it atleast stays pink but I’m definitely going back to make the cuts more wider eventually

I contacted a dentist in my area and they were able to give me vampire fangs! I had seen it on this subreddit and on social media. I’m so happy with them. They don’t affect how I chew or close my mouth or anything. And they don’t damage my original teeth.

This is a reluctant post that I don't want to make and a discussion I don't want to have. But I'd be a hypocrite to not help if I can.

First of all; just don't do it. It's not worth the risks. Secondly; your not 'hardcore' enough to deal with the pain of failure. No one is. Third; Fluromethalone.

It's been a lot of years since ink that was not properly thinned was injected into my eyeballs. I was told later that there was enough ink in my eyes to tattoo 20 people's eyeballs. I do not blame the artist, but I am miffed that other artists who knew to thin the ink kept it secret.

After a few years of living in a bottle, barely being able to open my eyes, needing sunglasses everywhere, and an average of 11 eye infections a week, I was ready to end my life.

The time had come to throw in the towel. So I started having my goodbye chats with friends but keeping the planned checkout to myself. An old girl friend reminded me that the only times I wasn't in constant agony was while taking steroids from the eye Hospital. They had insisted I wasn't to have more than a 2 month supply due to long term side effects, being guaranteed Cataracts. They where also verbally abusive so I never went back to them.

I went to a local optometrist in the regional Australian town I was staying in, and told him the pain was too much, that I was going to end it, and that I didn't want to be blackout drunk in my final months and that he was going to give me the steroids. He said he wanted to examine me first, so I sat in the chair with my chin on the rest, used my fingers to pull my eyelids open, lights in my eyes, as he looked through the telescope for about 4 seconds. He pulled away and said "Yep. Your going to kill yourself. Ok I'll give you as much as you want".

He wrote the script for 2 months and gave me his card with instructions that if my GP didn't want to give a constant supply, I was to insist the GP call him.

The next month's went as planned. I was revived and forced through the mental health system, which was its own nightmare.

I used the Fluromethalone as needed, initially 8 times a day, and in time that became 6, 4, 3, 1. Then 3 times a week, until not at all. Over the space of about a year. Each morning I would scrape blue crust from my eyes, this was the ink being pushed out. It went to green, and now it's normal.

I'm still light sensitive, to the blue spectrum specifically, but in pink shades I can manage pretty well.

So if your suffering, and I know there are people with "successful" procedures who are quietly suffering, my advice is Fluromethalone. It comes in a bottle marked FML drops, and that's never not funny.

It was a brutal few years. And I don't want to discuss it. But the pro's in the mod world don't necessarily know to give this advice. And doctors are often abusive. So it saved my life, and it might help you.

All the best.

I’ve had this since 2020. Started at 1/2 inch. Modded again 9 months later to 1 inch. Since then stretched to 3”. At any given time it’s got 2”-3” jewelry in.
