JEWELRY
ABOUT THIS PIERCING
An anti-eyebrow piercing is a surface piercing placed in the tissue along the upper cheekbone, below the outer edge of the eye.
The jewelry sits beneath the skin with two decorative ends visible on the surface, creating a distinctive look that follows the natural contour of the face.
Because this is a surface piercing, proper tissue depth, placement, and jewelry choice are especially important. Your piercer will assess the area carefully before determining whether the piercing is appropriate for your anatomy.
WHAT TO EXPECT
CONSULTATION & ANATOMY CHECK
We’ll assess the anatomy, answer any questions, and make sure this piercing is right for you.
Your piercer will carefully mark the placement along the cheekbone based on your anatomy and how the jewelry will sit.
MARKING & PLACEMENT
The piercing is performed using sterile, single-use equipment and professional surface jewelry.
THE PIERCING
You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions and have time to ask any additional questions.
AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS
HEALING & AFTERCARE
Surface piercings require careful healing because the jewelry sits close to the surface of the skin.
Keep the area clean, avoid unnecessary touching, and protect the piercing from makeup, pressure, snagging, and friction while it heals.
GOOD TO KNOW
The amount and flexibility of tissue along the cheekbone affect whether an anti-eyebrow can be placed safely.
Placement Matters
Migration is Possible
Like other surface piercings, anti-eyebrows can migrate or reject over time, even when initially placed correctly.
Jewelry Fit Matters
Properly fitted surface jewelry helps reduce unnecessary pressure and movement during healing.
Foundation, concealer, skincare products, and makeup brushes can irritate a fresh piercing or introduce bacteria to the area.
Avoid Makeup Around the Piercing
FAQs
-
No. A traditional eyebrow piercing passes through the eyebrow ridge, while an anti-eyebrow is a surface piercing placed lower on the face along the upper cheekbone.
-
They can be more prone to migration and rejection than traditional piercings because they are placed through surface tissue. Proper placement, suitable anatomy, and minimizing pressure or snagging can help reduce the risk.
-
It can. Surface piercings may leave two small marks after removal, and scarring can be more noticeable if the piercing migrates or rejects.
