ABOUT THIS PIERCING
Cyber Bites are a paired lip piercing made up of a Medusa piercing aboe the upper lip and a centered labret below the lower lip.
Together, the two placements create a strong vertical line through the center of the mouth for a clean, balanced look.
Because both pieces of jewelry rest inside the mouth, proper placement and correctly fitted jewelry are important for comfort and to help reduce unnecessary contact wit the teeth and gums.
Your piercer will assess your lip anatomy, facial symmetry, teeth, and gums before making both placements.

AFTERCARE INSTRUCTIONS
HEALING & AFTERCARE
Proper aftercare is important during healing. Keep both the outside and inside of the piercings clean, avoid unnecessary touching or movement, and follow the oral and external aftercare instructions provided at your appointment.
GOOD TO KNOW
Some swelling and tenderness are expected during the first several days, so initial jewelry is longer to allow room for swelling.
May Experience Swelling
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
Avoid biting, twisting, pulling, or repeatedly moving either piece of jewelry while healing. Excess movement can cause irritation and slow healing.
Avoid Playing with the Jewelry
