| ______________________________ [Oct 8,2004 5:24pm - mark- ""] there are 2 types of implants. transdermal implant an implant which passes through the skin A transdermal implant falls somewhere between a single-hole pocketing and an implant. The simplest way to describe it is as a labret, with the flat part under the skin – the end effect is that of a spike that appears to be screwed right into the body. It’s not as simple as just a labret though. A labret will reject. Successful healing requires proper jewelry, which more closely resembles a flattened pretzel or figure eight with a bar coming out a ninety degrees. The holes are there for skin to grow through, anchoring the jewelry. Making this jewelry requires advanced machining facilities or titanium casting access. It is placed as an implant and then the bar is exposed using a dermal punch. Performing this procedure requires both advanced tools and techniques, and the experience to be able to use them. Subdermal Implant implant implantation of three dimentional objects under the skin A 3D Art implant is any object implanted fully under the skin for the purpose of affecting a sculptural change of the surface. The "invention" and popularization of implants as 3D Art is credited primarily to Steve Haworth. Implants are generally rather trouble-free healing, since they are sealed totally inside your body. Assuming that you have no reaction to the bead material, and the implant is properly placed, the best thing you can do to help it heal (and this goes for any modification) is to be in good health and have a strong immune system. If part of the implant becomes exposed during the healing process (if the entry hole(s) open), it will probably never heal properly and should be removed. However, the majority of implants are inserted using a pseudo-surgical method. Using a scalpel, a single incision is made. Through that incision a "pocket" is opened with the aid of a dermal separator (essentially a tiny spatula). Different spatula designs of varying shapes and sharpnesses are used depending on the area. A scalpel is not sufficient for creating this pocket, as it cannot easy be stopped from cutting through the skin layers rather than simply separating them. Into this pocket the implant is inserted and the incision is closed either with sutures or suture tape. It should be noted that the incision need not be placed immediately next to the implant location (some breast implant procedures are done through the navel), since the implant can be placed through a "tunnel". For example, in the case of an eyebrow implant, the incision can be made at the top of the forehead behind the hairline. Other than incision placement, incisions should be made with the grain of the skin, and should be treated gently during healing. Implants can be stretched just like piercings. A good example of this are "horn implants" -- they start as smaller implants and are then taken out when healed and replaced with slightly larger ones. This process is repeated to achieve the final size. There are some risks of irritation to the skin above the implant if this process is pushed too fast as with all stretching. Careful placement relative to anatomy can minimize migration, as can careful creation of the insertion pocket (it will affect the implant's ability and motivation to move a great deal). A pressure bandage holding the implant in place may help for the first few days, as will taking care not to sleep on the implant pushing it out of place. In any case, some degree of migration should be expected. go to www.bmezine.com |
