Body piercing
Our Piercing Services
All piercings are carried out at the clinic at 31 The Town, Enfield, in north London.
We offer a full range of body piercing services. Below is a description of the different types of piercing that can be performed by a professional on site. In addition, a short explanation is included with each example to demonstrate how the procedure is regularly conducted.
Ear & nose
The most common piercings we carry out in Enfield
G Mantella pierces ears, nose, belly button, eyebrow, lip, tragus, tongue and nipple at 31 The Town, Enfield. Ear lobes are pierced with a specially designed gun; every other piercing is carried out freehand.
Ear piercing
This is the most common form of body piercing. A hole is pierced through the fatty tissue of the earlobe and an earring is inserted. This procedure is normally performed using a specially designed gun.
Nose piercing
This is carried out using a specifically designed nose piercing system. This procedure makes the process both comfortable and safe and has become a recommended standard throughout the locality.
Other types of piercing must be carried out using a hollow needle, which is pushed through the skin and tissue of the body part being pierced. This ensures there are clear entrance and exit holes. A piece of jewellery, usually a decorative bar or ball closure ring, is then pushed through the hole.
Body piercing
Other common piercings include the following:
Belly button piercing
The banana bar is inserted just above the navel.
Eyebrow piercing
A small curved bar is inserted through the eyebrow. A ball closure ring can also be used.
Lip piercing
Above and below mouth a labret stud or a ball closure ring can be used.
Tongue piercing
The tongue is pierced from the base up using a straight bar 22mm in length with small screw balls on each end. This size bar is used to allow for swelling. When the piercing has fully healed, this bar is changed for a shorter bar.
Nipple piercing
This is made through the vascular (meaning that blood flows through it) tissue of the end of the nipple. A thin metal ring or bar is inserted through the hole.
Cartilage and top of the ear piercing
The top of the ear is carried out with a hollow needle rather than the earlobe gun, and takes the 9ct gold cartilage jewellery shown below.
Other descriptions can be made available upon request.
