Still technically a nostril piercing, high nostrils sit above the alar crease. a little higher, a little bolder, and yes… they usually take a bit longer to heal than a standard nostril piercing.
Your anatomy plays a big role in where piercings can be placed and how smoothly healing goes. Because of that, a consultation with one of our practitioners is required before booking your piercing appointment.
Glasses wearers, listen up! If your frames like to slide down your nose, they can bump or snag fresh piercings. We highly recommend tightening or adjusting your glasses before getting pierced to keep irritation to a minimum during healing.
