The treatment involves a vertical (or slightly oblique) piercing of the skin fold on the eyebrow. The insertion and exit of the needle are on the same flat plane of the face.

Anatomy is key: Not every eyebrow is suitable for piercing. For the piercing to be safe and have a chance to last for years, you must have enough loose skin that can be gripped in this place. If your skin on the eyebrow is very tense and adheres tightly to the bone, the risk of your body quickly rejecting the piercing is almost 100%. An experienced piercer always starts by assessing the tissue.

Good news! Eyebrow piercing is widely recognized as one of the least painful facial piercings. The tissue here is soft and flexible, and the pain is usually only mild 2 to 3 on a 10-point scale.

However, you must be prepared for other, completely normal phenomena:

1. Bleeding: The eyebrow arch is an area with an extremely strong blood supply. It happens that more blood will appear during the procedure than with other piercings. This is no reason to panic.
2. Bruises (Limes): Due to the rich network of blood vessels, bruising or swelling may appear around the eye (so-called "black eye") within 24-48 hours after the procedure. The bruise will heal on its own after a few days.

Surface piercings do not forgive hygiene mistakes and mechanical damage.

• The initial stage of healing (swelling goes down): from 6 to 8 weeks.
• Complete healing of the canal: from 3 to 4 months (the process of stabilization in the tissue often takes longer).

1. Don't touch: Avoid touching the earring with dirty hands and refrain from "spinning" it.
2. Cleanse regularly: Wash the piercing site 2-3 times a day with sterile saline solution.
3. Avoid chemicals: Avoid using hydrogen peroxide, alcohol or antibiotic ointment. They may irritate the wound and delay healing.
4. Be careful with your hair and clothes: Make sure that shampoo or conditioner does not remain on the ear after bathing. Be careful when putting on sweaters!

The eyebrow piercing is in constant, direct contact with tissue that is heavily supplied with blood. We want to make our customers aware that choosing the right material is not a matter of aesthetics, but of health.

Starter jewelry:

It is standard in this piercing curved barbell, i.e. Banana (Curved Barbell).

• Why Tytan G23? Titanium is absolutely the safest material for piercing. Unlike surgical steel, it does not contain harmful nickel admixtures, is 100% biocompatible and drastically reduces the risk of allergic reactions and rejection of the earring. This is the only safe choice to start with!
• Rod Thickness: Standard 1.2 mm.
• Starting Length: Typically 10 mm or 12 mm to account for initial tissue swelling.

Downsize (Shortening the rod): Absolutely critical! Once the swelling subsides, the barbell will begin to protrude significantly from both sides of the skin fold. A long earring will catch on hair and clothes, which will quickly lead to tissue tearing and migration. You need to go to a piercer to shorten the rod (usually to 8 mm or 6 mm).
