Protecing the Piercing

Some people place and large band-aid over the surface anchor during the first two weeks of healing to keep it flush against the body while the skin tightens around the post; use the kind that are sticky all the way around.

Do not get confused, these piercings are not permanent.

• Surface piercings do not have a traditional enter-exit point. That means these piercings are under the surface of your skin which makes them slightly unstable and unpredictable.
• In the time we have been open, we have seen surface piercings last anywhere from one month- 10+ years. It’s all based on a number of factors including how many times you snag the piercings, how many times you change the top, how heavy the top is, etc.
• Surface piercings will come out at some point in the future.
