Freehand lip piercings 👄 it’s just one of those things I really enjoy doing 💁‍♀️ Read more to learn how and why I do it…

Lips are very vascular, part of why they heal quickly! But that is also why they can swell a lot.

Freehand means we don’t use any forceps or “clamps”. This is to reduce trauma to the tissue that can cause swelling, bleeding, bruising, and longer healing. This counts for all piercings !

Also, when you use a “clamp” of some kind, it squeezes the layers of tissue together, usually unevenly. Then they get pierced through and the clamp is released. So internally the puncture through those layers can be jagged and damaged, leading to more scar tissue and other complications.

For a freehand lip piercing we use our needle to measure, and use bevel theory to execute the angle of the outcome ! It’s super nerdy and I love it 🥰 Bevel theory basically means that the way you hold the needle and the direction you face it will determine the angle of the wound.

This is one of many things that sets apart a hobby piercer to a “real piercer” , or a piercing specialist.

Always seek a specialist for your safety and the best experience possible.
