Had these two demons put on yesterday - We’re getting there. . .
In other news; We’re looking at moving to a new flat, the only downside is having to deal with agents. Just why are they so incompetent? - I suppose as there is no minimum educational standard for this type of work, some of the agents have issues breathing and walking at the same time. 
Here’s what I had done yesterday - The sleeve is coming along nicely. Today I have lots of products to add to the shop, no rest for the wicked eh?
Has now been removed from my scalp, there is nothing quite picking the little buggers out - Mmmm satisfying. I also use Bio-oil on the incisions to reduce scarring.
I thought I’d share the pics from my head implant procedure, ‘cos I’m nice like that - they are pretty gory; more after the break, if you can stomach it. . . (more…)
Oh yeah baby! A swollen head and two black eyes - REEESULT! Libby keeps laughing at me too.
When everyone kept telling me that there was loads of blood during the procedure, they weren’t kidding! This is just a little bit of the aftermath.
Today my head is a little less sore (no headaches as yet) and slightly swollen - which is to be expected. Getting used to sleeping on my back has been the hardest part of all this, but I’ve been managing to get a reasonable amount of sleep.
So I went and done and did it! Yup The implants are now fully installed beneath my skin - Did it hurt? Of freakin’-course!
Here you can see the markings of where they’ll be placed and we eventually want them to sit - I’m not going to post too many gory images here, as some folks don’t appreciate the gore factor - You can find all the images on my Flickr account. . .
Anyway that was yesterday and I was informed that I would have the mother of all headaches today, but so far I’ve been fine. My head feels funny but I’m not in any kind of pain. I even managed to get a reasonable night of sleep. Can’t really see much apart from a big swollen bonce :-).
. . .Oh yes, there will be and lots of it too! Yes, for today is implant day. Six of the buggers, three either side of my hairline - it’s been a long time coming and I don’t mind admitting I’m a little bit apprehensive.
Ever since I first saw 3D art implants I knew that I would be having them done myself. Over the last few years I’ve had six Teflon implants in my arm and one silicone circular barbell in my hand. Obviously I was leaving the best ’til last, well to tell the truth, we have been waiting almost a year for the implants themselves. This is not as bad as it seems as I have a busy life/work schedule, and when they did arrive we had to do some careful planning to fit the procedure in.
That day is today. I know that head procedures bleed like a bastard, but then its not me that has to deal with that side of things - I do wonder if this is the modification that will push me over the edge (so to speak) as it’s probably the most extreme one that I’ve done.
Time will tell - I’ll keep you posted. . .
