Nose Bridge

There is little history to this piercing, however in the early 1990s it was one of the more unusual piercings, and as the piercing industry developed more types of jewellery like the soft PTFE bars and surface bars, this piercing − along with other surface piercings − became popular with the enthusiast and those experimenting with different looks and searching for new ways to stand out. Nose piercings and lip piercings were becoming more common, and so the nose bridge came into vogue.

This piercing will probably never become one of the popular common place piercings for a number of reasons. It has a higher chance of rejection, it can interfere with wearing glasses, and placement is more difficult. If done even a millimetre off, it can look silly. Therefore, this piercing is not one to be done by an inexperienced piercer. It is important that it is placed well, as a crooked nose bridge looks awful, and one done at the incorrect depth or with methods that cause more tissue damage are more likely to reject and scar.

Some people will get headaches from this piercing, however at Body Pleasure Piercing we have found using softer PTFE bars has helped to prevent this.
