Floral Sculpture Clinic
floralI'm not sure if this is real or fake. The Floral Sculpture Clinic says that it will implant bone tissue sculpted into the shape of a flower beneath your skin. The result will be a visibly raised bony pattern on your skin. If real, it's very strange.
Update: Boing Boing reports that the Floral Sculpture Clinic is indeed a hoax. It's part of a conceptual art project dreamed up by the Dutch artist Simone Van Bakel. The images of the inserted implants are photoshopped.

This particular story may be a hoax but skin implants are possible (with teflon and silicon). For example, the horn implants of Enigma (http://www.humanmarvels.com/)and genital beading (http://encyc.bmezine.com/?genital_beading).
