Nipple

Information

Usually, people expect a high amount of pain during a nipple piercing; however, if done correctly, it can be a little pinchy but not overly painful. Placement, anatomy, and aftercare are crucial to the healing of a nipple piercing; therefore, a consultation with one of our practitioners is required before your piercing appointment.

Although rings can be worn in them, a straight bar is required for healing and is generally considered more comfortable in the long term. They can also be stretched to larger gauge jewellery.

It is essential to minimise movement and pressure on/around the piercings during the healing period, to prevent potential migration and excessive scar tissue.

We do not do nipple piercings on any person under the age of 18 – even with parental consent.

Inverted Nipple Portfolio

Information

Inverted nipples (where the nipple has retracted into the breast tissue) are often a cosmetic concern, which can be rectified by piercing the nipple. There are three main categories of nipple inversions:

Grade 1: The nipple comes out easily under light pressure and remains out when the pressure is released. Generally, there is little to no excess connective tissue (fibrosis), and it is usually considered the same as a standard nipple, although slightly more specialised.

Grade 2: The nipple comes out under mild to medium pressure; however, it goes back after being released. Often, there is a moderate amount of fibrosis, and the piercing should be expected to bruise and swell more; therefore, a longer and thicker barbell may be required to compensate for the increased pressure. Once pierced, the nipple will stay outwards and may appear permanently erect.

Grade 3: The nipple is retracted and can not be manipulated to come out. Generally this type of anatomy is not suitable for piercing, and surgery is the only corrective procedure; however, we are still happy to provide a consultation and discuss options.
