I can think of quite a few body mods that would be nearly impossible to effectively reverse. Most of them involve cutting - forked tongue, subincision or bifurcation of the penis, amputation fetish, that sort of thing.
Truly massive tattoos, such as the fellow with the full-body lizard scales, would be insurmountably difficult to eradicate without an unacceptable amount of scarring.
How good are they at undoing the extremely stretched earlobes? Can that be fixed with an aesthetically pleasing outcome? One thing's for sure, demand for such procedures is going to skyrocket in the coming decades, I predict a lucrative sub-specialty for plastic surgeons.
To change the subject, and I mean this in a totally concerned and non-judgemental way - have your modifications given you any difficulty finding employment?
sure when you take things to such extremes at the lizardman or myself.....things are less reversible.......but we know that.....or we wouldn't have chose to go as fas as we have......its our choice to dedicate our lives to it
when i made my comment i would referring to the generic sense of it
piercings can be removed with little scarring.....large ear lobes can be cut off and stitched up and you can barely tell it was there
tattoo removal has become more and more advanced now that they can remove things i wouldn't believe could be and you can hardly notice it was there.....unlike the old style were it wouldn't fully leave and you would have a good amount of scarring
and sure amputation is permanent that sort of a given i think......but other then that if you really want you can have things fixed i mean it will cost money but it should cost you something if you dove headfirst into something without fully thinking about if you wanted it for life or not
small piercings and tattoos still should be thought about in depth before receiving them but they arent as life changing
when going into something like tongue splitting, implants, large stretched piercings, extremely visible tattoo etc.....great care should be taken.......i personally did think about the stuff i wanted for a very long time......i had my facial tattoo design drawn since i was a sophomore in high school....so i had alot of time to think about it
i have never had a problem finding employment personally......i was the manager of journeys shoe store for 3 years and still technically work for them though i left the company.....i managed a wholesale body jewelry store for a year.....and i have been a body modification artist for 5 years now.....and i own my own studio called Corpus Gloria body arts
