From Pokemonfakemon

Physique piercing Techniques
- Needle Technique (Regular)
The most common strategy employed in the United States to make a piercing is with a medical hollow needle. The needle tends to make an opening in the skin you want to have pierced but does not go all the way through. The jewelry then is inserted and follows the needle back. It really is required to insert the jewelry right away to hold the slit the needle created open. The needle strategy doesn't involve removing any flesh (some approaches do). The opening is usually created with a needle bigger than the initial jewelry to be worn. This is done to decrease the pressure on the healing piercing, giving it much more space to heal and let a fistula to form.
- Piercing Guns
Piercing guns are gun-shaped devices that mechanically makes the piercing by forcing a stud through the physique part. You can compare it with a stapler.
This strategy is often utilised by non-specialist piercers and mainly to pierce holes in the earlobes. You ought to avoid this approach simply because the piercing gun is difficult to sterilize. The threat is infection and transmission of bulletproof pathogens.
- Cannula Strategy
The cannula approach is similar to the regular strategy. The distinction is that at the end of the needle there's a cannula (a hollow plastic tube) where the piercer puts in the jewelry. So at the piercing approach, the cannula and the jewelry is completely pulled by way of the opening. This approach is often employed in Europe.
- Scalpel strategy
When you want an opening for a huge gauge physique tragus piercing, a medical scalpel can be utilised to make a slit. This approach is often employed for big gauge ear piercings. It's also utilised to appropriate an asymmetry for instance if the ear piercing on 1 side is bigger than the other simply because of an incorrect placement.
When you don't want your piercing anymore and you get rid of the jewelry, the fistula will not shrink or close from itself. The only solution there is surgically.
- Pierce and Taper
This technique is for bigger gauge piercings and only works on body parts where the skin is really elastic. It really is similar to the standard approach, but immediately after the hole is pierced with the needle, the piercer inserts a tapered steel bar (1 of larger gauge then the needle) in order to make the opening larger. The jewelry is straight inserted, following the tapered bar.This has the same information with vertical tragus.
- Dermal Punching
Piercings in the upper ear need removal of skin and cartilage to lift the pressure of the piercing and guarantee a longer viability of the piercing. Consequently, a dermal punch is utilised to eliminate a circular location of tissue, exactly where the jewelry will be worn. Like scalpelled piercings, the healed fistulas will not shrink or close on their own.
