Surface Lip

Vertical lip piercings are a fun alternative to a standard lip piercing which won’t rub on your teeth or gums. You need to be careful not to play with them during the healing period, to prevent the risk of migration and even rejection.

They will require a downsize during healing as a longer bar is required initially for swelling. A flat top (plain disc or stone) is used for the healing, however balls and spikes can be worn on the ends of the bar, once healed.

The viability of lip piercings is dependent on anatomy, so we do require a consultation with one of our practitioners before your piercing appointment.
