Implants and Scarification

Ive been researching a lot lately into scarification, and how in Africa, artists use the body as their canvas. It involves puncturing or cutting patterns and motifs into the epidermis of the skin. People in todays society place implants in their skin, don't ask me why, as i personally do not like it, but if they want to do it, they can. The thought of the pain they go through. Owww.
