Lip Piercing Ideas

The source of inspiration for lip piercings!

Lip piercing is considered to be the simplest and the safest type of piercing, because there are no large-vessels and complex ganglia in our lips.

However, some nonstandard types of lip piercing exist: vertical piercing of lower or upper lip and lip piercings on opposite sides of the mouth. For such operations you should better choose the rings of 10mm or 12 mm in diameter, or bananabells of 1.6x10 mm or 1.6x12 mm with the equal beads.

Worthy of particular mention are so-called smile piercing, when your piercing can be visible only in case you smile. This is a body piercing through the frenulum of either the upper or lower lip. For this type of piercing small jewelry 1.2x8 mm or 1.2x10 mm. Rings, mocrobarbells and microbananabells are appropriate. It is important for the jewelry not to bother you and not to hit on your teeth.

The piercing procedure is standard and doesn't need anesthesia, curved piercing is difficult to do due to the marks and the whole procedure passes faster and less painfully than tongue piercing. But it is recommended for piercer to make sure that there are no veins in the place of piercing by holding the pierced part of the lip up to the light.

Vertical labret is vertical lip piercing. This type of piercing is very original but not very widespread in our country in contrast to Europe and USA. The piercing looks the most aesthetically, if it goes through the center of the lip, perpendicularly to the lip, when the needle enters between the lower lip and the teeth and exits through the center of the lip on top. For such piercing micro banana bells of different sizes are appropriate, dependent of lip thickness.

Horizontal labret is recommended for thrill-seekers. This type of piercing is much more complicated. The piercing goes parallel to the lip. If the needle goes insufficiently deep, then the jewelry may be sloughed off.

Besides, such piercing has longer healing period than, for example, common medusa. The piercing is constantly in the open air and by definition a man can't help licking off the lips. So with the saliva bacteria get into the piercing very well. Thus, for fast and competent healing of horizontal labret it is necessary to make a lot of efforts and practice maximum hygiene of lips.

Lip piercing aftercare is the same as for tongue piercing: to rinse with the antiseptic three to four times daily and soak the outside of the piercing using topical anticeptic, and don't play with the jewelry until full healing (one week to 20 days).
