Microdermal surface anchor piercings are a ‘new’ form of body piercing (they have been around for hte last few years in their current form although the general idea has been around much longer), that is similar in style to transdermal implants. These are a single point piercing this means that there is only one end of the jewellery showing. These are considered to be a permanent body modification, compared to traditional body piercing. Once placed the skin will grow through the holes in the microdermal base within a few weeks of the piercing and secure it in place, it is important in the first few weeks of healing to be careful with the microdermal as it is possible to pull it out. As these are relatively new it is unclear just how permanent they will be, as such are sometimes referred to as ’semi-permanent’.

Ear piercings are one of the most standard piercings in the world, not many people in western europe realise just how many different piercings there are for the ear. Not all ear piercings are possible on the same ear due to conflicts with other piercings, and some are only suitable depending on the individuals anatomy. Here is a picture from one of our customers showing just a few of the ear piercings that one can get.

Starting at the bottom working the way around the outside-up; 2x Lobe; 1x 16mm Plug, 1x 1.6mm CBR 4x Cartilige; 2x 1.6mm Labret studs 2x 2mm CBRs, 1x Rook; 1.6mm CBR.

To start the blog off I am going to show case one of our more beautiful items, these hot pink star plugs, are a custom item that we had specially made for us in a range of sizes from 8G (3mm) through to 11/16″ (18mm).

Hand made from water buffalo horn these really are great for people who are sensitive to plastics and find steel/titanium items too heavy to wear.
