THE SUPERFICIAL MODSPA TEAM

Owner & Master Piercer

Joey's journey into the world of body piercing began with a childhood fascination for plastic surgery, sparked by watching plastic surgery shows with his mom. Though his dream was once to become a plastic surgeon, that passion naturally evolved into a deep love for body modification - and he's been piercing professionally for 16 years now. 

In August 2019, Joey opened Superficial ModSpa with a clear vision: to create a  luxury studio dedicated exclusively to body piercing. He wanted to elevate the client experience and offer a space where professionalism, creativity, and care come together. 

Joey is known for his artistic eye and precise technique. He approaches every piercing with intention and expertise. In addition to working with client, his goal is to help every client feel seen, confident, and uniquely themselves- leaving the studio not just with a new piercing, but a little extra sparkle.
