Pictures of Wrist Surface Piercings

June 17th 2010 23:10
Surface piercings are the "new," "unique" piercing that has become very popular in the modification crowd, buyt they're hard to heal and hard to get properly pierced. First off, many piercers use curved, banana barbells or captive bead rings, which won't heal properly in a surface piercing; proper jewlery is either a surface barbell or tygon (PTFE). Next, healing is a pain and nearly impossible with a 99% rejection rate.

As for wrist piercings, they are popular and hard to heal. The wrist is a high contact area that is highly mobile and very much in the way of everything that people do. The odds of hitting your wrist is higher than you realize, so getting a piercing here can increase the risks.

Bandaids are popular choices of coverup, but they halt breathing and air exchange, so using bandaids to protect the piercing won't really work. Plus, if you hit a bandaid, there isn't that much protection there.

It's not necessarily impossible to heal a wrist piercing, but it's hard.

Below, are several pictures of wrist surface piercings.















The typical ending for a wrist piercing.. A scar.

Hey, just a note. PTFE and Tygon are not the same thing! PTFE is Teflon. Tygon is silicone tubing.

ok to answer the question of 2nd comment i know that when you first scar you usual scar red or brown depending on you rethnicity and i think on how deep the cut or incistion is and in time the scar will eventually fade with time and faster if you put vitamen E on it or i heard that protrolium jelly is a cheaper way to go and has more of an fade effect
