ABOUT THIS PIERCING
Angel Fangs are a paired upper lip piercing that creates two vertical accents on either side of the lip.
Both ends of each piece of jewelry remain visible, allowing Angel Fangs to create a bold, symmetrical look without jewelry resting inside the mouth.
The lower ends are often styled with spikes once appropriate jewelry is selected, creating the signature “fang” appearance.
Anatomy varies, so a consultation and anatomy check are always performed to determine whether this piercing is a good fit for you.

Anatomy Considerations

Downsizing is Recommended
Jewelry should typically be downsized after 4 to 8 weeks once initial swelling has subsided.
Skip lipstick, gloss, balm, and other cosmetic products around the piercing while it’s healing to help reduce irritation and contamination.

FAQs
-
Depending on the jewelry and your anatomy, your piercer may start with simpler jewelry that allows room for swelling. Decorative ends such as spikes can often be added later once healing is progressing well.
-
Any piercing can leave a small mark after removal. How noticeable it is depends on your skin, how long you’ve had the piercings, and how they healed.
-
Angel Fangs are typically worn with curved barbells. Other jewelry styles may be possible after healing, but not every style is appropriate for the placement or anatomy.
