Although considered a common piercing, navel piercings require stable and prominent anatomy to heal correctly. If pierced incorrectly, they can scar excessively and drastically reduce the chance of being re-pierced.
We typically find ideal navel anatomy on clients who are 20+ years old, so it is common for us to suggest to younger clients to wait until the tissue has further developed.
An anatomical consultation is required before your piercing appointment, so our practitioners can discuss viability, placement and jewellery options that are tailored to your anatomy.
