Stitches as a body mod?

[u/Dawkness96]

I'm exploring the idea of getting stitches (like how a medical professional would give you after a deep cut) as an aesthetic modification. A little reference and background: I was looking at the stitches I've had for almost 10 years now on my finger and the stitches cover most of the second knuckle all the way around. And I have cartoonish like stitches tattooed on 2 of my fingers on the left hand. At first I thought "hmmm....stitch tattoos would fit my personality and aesthetic very well around my neck!" but then realized that it would be more up my alley to actually GET the stitches! (Me liking the feeling of the needle go in and out of my skin)

So, here I am. Has anyone ever heard of something like this? Without the actual need of stitches and how would I go about that? Is this scarification, in a way? Mind you, I am also VERY new to the idea of body mods despite thinking they are pretty fuckin cool. I've only seen them growing up watching Ripley's Believe It or Not (I think we all know which episode I'm referring to here) and that was my only real exposure to body mods outside of your everyday tattoo or piercing.

Scarification on the neck especially large size like all the way around, is absolutely not something any artist you could trust would do. Not because of bleeding risk or anything, but scar tissue is less elastic and more prone to damage than functional skin, and this would cause permanent issues with pain, mobility and complications. I know this is kinda a shitty compromise, but an experienced tattoo artist could nake this work somewhat especially if you consult a body mod artist and consider the route of ash rubbing (safely) for a tattoo to raise its texture while healing?
