I’ve had several procedures done by Steve and recommend him for anyone else looking to get this sort of work done. He is a professional and pioneer in this field.
I have one of the earlier generations of these magnets implanted and everyone needs to understand the risks. Mine has lost its charge and I hope that it isn’t due to a leak in the silicone and that it isn’t being devoured by my body. It’s probably been pushing a decade now and I am passively looking for someone to remove this implant as well as a rejecting transdermal.
If you do get any of these body mods done, realize that many aren’t going to be forever and you will need to have a removal plan.
In all horrible honesty is self removal with a localized anesthetic not an option? for a subdermal implant it's not as deep as one might think. Once you overcome the initial pain you should be able to remove one yourself. (this is not medical advice and I could be horribly wrong)
Sure...I imagine it's an option. I know someone who digs moles out with a pocket knife and a bottle of isopropynol. Lots of things are options. Doesn't mean they're all good ones.
Your acquaintance may like to know common 3% hydrogen peroxide can be used to great effect for oxidizing moles and warts off. It just takes some time, but persistent application eventually destroys the organic flesh and conveniently leaves a chemically cauterized surface behind.
I think it's for the 'it makes him feel manly reasons' mostly. I'm not sure oxidizing it off slowly with hydrogen peroxide would have the same effect as cutting into his own flesh and cleansing the wound with searing alcohol does.
