Because facial anatomy and natural symmetry vary from person to person, your piercer will assess placement before piercing to create the best possible look for your features.

Anatomy & Symmetry

Natural facial and lip symmetry varies. Your piercer will carefully assess and mark both placements to create the most balanced result for your anatomy.

Initial jewelry allows room for swelling and should typically be downsized after 2 to 4 weeks to support comfortable healing.

Downsizing is Recommended

Because the jewelry sits inside the mouth, properly fitted jewelry and downsizing are important to help minimize unnecessary contact with the teeth and gums.
