History
The kinds of subdermal implants that are being done today are a fairly recent innovation. It is generally agreed upon the fact that they were pioneered as they are today by Steve Haworth. In his shop, HTC Body Piercing in Phoenix, AZ he first began these procedures after being asked for a bracelet. He concluded that he could put a row of beads under the woman’s wrist to create the effect she desired. Since then, many different artists have done many different kinds of implants. Some of the well known names in the industry are Steve Haworth, Emilio Gonzales, and Stelarc who recently had a cell-cultivated ear implanted on his arm.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of progress is written in the blood of men and women who have dared to espouse an unpopular cause, as, for instance, the black man’s right to his body, or woman’s right to her soul.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a demon than the Word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
“The steps toward the emancipation of women are first intellectual, then industrial, lastly legal and political. Great strides in the first two of these stages already have been made of millions of women who do not yet perceive that it is surely carrying them towards the last.”
—Ellen Battelle Dietrick, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 13, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
