About body surface piercing

A surface piercing follows a channel beneath the skin, with an opening at each end. Unlike a navel or nipple piercing, it is not defined by one standard body location. The proposed area needs to be considered individually. Bring a reference photo if it helps explain the effect you like, and describe whether you want one piercing or a wider arrangement. The studio can discuss what the listed body surface service covers before you decide to proceed with a particular placement.

Is this placement right for you?

Clothing and movement are especially useful things to discuss for this piercing. Consider where waistbands, bag straps, sports equipment or workwear sit against your body and whether you can keep them clear of the proposed position. A surface piercing needs a realistic care plan and cannot be guaranteed permanent. Ask about maintenance and follow-up as part of your decision. If you want several placements, confirm the total price first. Contact the studio to confirm age, ID and consent requirements before booking.

Jewellery and what is included

Basic jewellery is included in the €40 price. Surface placements need jewellery selected for the specific site, rather than simply choosing a familiar ear or navel bar. Discuss the visible ends and fit with the studio, and ask about any suitable upgrades and their additional prices.

Looking after your piercing

Protect the area from rubbing and snagging while it heals. Follow the studio's instructions for cleaning and leave the jewellery still. Ask how to manage your normal clothing and activities around this particular placement, and book a check if an end starts catching or sitting differently.

Follow the instructions given for your individual piercing. Ask the studio about any fit checks or jewellery changes during healing.

Body Surface Piercing: your questions

Can I choose any body location for a surface piercing?

Suitability depends on the exact area and how it moves. Contact the studio with your idea before booking; a photo of someone else's piercing does not establish that the same position will work for you.

Is €40 the price for a whole arrangement of surface piercings?

€40 is the website's listed body surface piercing price. If your idea involves several separate piercings, ask the studio to confirm the number of services and the total cost before going ahead.

How do I book and what should I bring?

Use our website booking page to select your piercing and an available appointment. Contact the studio to confirm age, ID and consent requirements for your chosen service before booking. You can also complete our consent form before your visit. Walk-ins are welcome, subject to availability.
