    The Latest Craze? Of Corset Is
    A bizarre new craze called 'corset piercing' is sweeping the UK.

    The painful trend involves sticking hoops into the skin and then threading them with ribbon to give a 'corset' effect.

    The 'decoration', which can cost up to GBP 300, can be applied to any area of the body where the skin is loose enough to pinch in order to thread a needle through.

    Popular areas include the back, ribs and, in some cases, even the throat.

    Anyone who wants the unusual decoration must endure an hour of pain to achieve the effect.

    However, it's only temporary as after a few weeks of wear the hooks simply grow out, leaving scars in their place.

    The craze is the latest in the 'body modification' phenomenon, which has seen people going to extraordinary levels in a bid to stand out from the crowd.

    Today it's possible to be branded, scarred and even have silicone implanted under the skin to create bumps and 'horns'.

    Kooky popstar Lady Gaga is just one celebrity who's jumped on the bandwagon. She sported bizarre flesh-coloured 'horns' on her face during a television interview in February this year.

    According to piercing experts, the 'corset' modification is growing in popularity as more and more brave the pain.

    But consultant plastic surgeon Kevin Hancock, a council member of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons who works at Spire Murrayfield Hospital, Merseyside, warned of the problems it can cause.

    He added: "I can't believe it's something that people would be attracted to.

    "Any piercing, superficial or otherwise, produces a scar and different people scar in different ways.

    "For some, the scarring may be slight but for others it can produce problems where the tissue overgrows and you end up with a red lump which is permanent.

    "In some cases this can...
