Snake Bite Piercings Overview
A snake bite piercing consists of two piercings on the lower lip, mirroring snake bite marks. This edgy, symmetrical piercing has gained popularity. Snake bites can be pierced with rings or labret studs, each creating a unique look.
Choosing a Professional Piercing Studio
It’s crucial to choose a professional piercing studio for a safe, hygienic experience. You’ll discuss placement with your piercer. The pain level varies but typically hurts about as much as a regular piercing. The process is quick, with little pain after the initial piercing.
Aftercare Tips for Snake Bite Piercings
- Clean piercings twice daily with saline spray or soap.
- Avoid touching piercings unnecessarily.
- Rinse mouth after eating.
- Mindfully choose jewelry that contacts teeth and gums.
Healing and Risks
Healing takes 6-8 weeks. Risks include infection and damage to teeth or gums. See a doctor or piercer if infected. Proper care is essential for successful healing.
