What to Know Before Getting a High Nose Piercings?

Nose piercings have historically symbolised beauty, strength, and cultural identity. Among the various kinds available, High Nose Piercings have emerged as a fashionable and beautiful choice for people wishing to make a bold statement. 

But before you go ahead and get pierced, there are a few things you should know to ensure a smooth, safe, and attractive experience.

Understanding High Nose Piercings

High nose piercings are done higher up on the nose, near the top, and above where regular nose piercings are usually done. These minor changes in positioning result in a more balanced and unique appearance. Due to their raised location, these piercings often require various jewellery styles and slightly more careful placement.

They are a great choice for individuals with existing nostril piercings who want to enhance the volume of their facial jewellery. These nose piercings pair well with other piercings, creating a modern, layered look that stands out.

Pain Level and Healing Time

One of the most common concerns about High Nose Piercings is the pain level. While pain tolerance varies from person to person, many describe the sensation as a sharp pinch with some pressure. The experience may be a little more uncomfortable than with a regular piercing because the area has more cartilage than the lower nostril.

The healing period might range between 4 and 6 months, depending on your aftercare routine and how well your body responds. It's important not to touch or twist the jewellery, as this can slow down healing and bring in germs.

Best Jewellery Options for Comfort and Style

When it comes to High Nose Piercings, the jewellery you choose is important for both comfort and beauty. Initially, your piercer will most likely recommend a small stud or labret with a flat back to reduce irritation during the healing phase. Once recovered, you might consider a variety of options, including:

• Delicate studs with gemstones or opals.

• Smooth hoops create a simple style.

• Stacked styles with complementary nose jewellery.

Ensure that all jewellery is produced from high-quality, hypoallergenic materials such as titanium, surgical steel, or gold.

Essential Aftercare Tips

Proper aftercare is essential for avoiding infections and problems from upper nostril piercings. Your piercer will give you a specific procedure; nevertheless, here are some generally recommended practices:

• Gently clean the area twice a day with a saltwater solution.

• Stay away of putting oils, lotions, or makeup on the pierced region.

• Avoid swimming or putting your face in water during the initial healing period.

• Never twist or remove jewellery prematurely.

Following these instructions will guarantee that your piercing remains clean, heals correctly, and looks amazing.

Choosing a Reputable Piercer

Compared to normal nose piercings, high nose piercings are more complex and require for a high level of skill and experience. Placement needs to be customised to your face because nose shape can differ greatly from person to person. 

Verify that the skilled piercer you choose has experience with high placements and a strong portfolio of successful piercings.

During your consultation, do not hesitate to inquire. A skilled piercer will help you in feeling comfortable, clarify how everything works, and instruct you on how to care for your piercing afterwards.
