It involves inserting jewellery through the skin around the belly button, most often on the upper rim above the navel, to create a stylish and eye-catching look. * * * ## What to Expect - **Process** – The piercing is quick, usually taking only a few minutes. The piercer will mark the placement before inserting the needle. - **Jewellery** – A curved barbell is most commonly used, allowing the decorative end to rest just above the belly button. - **Anatomy** – Placement depends on your unique navel shape and skin. Not all navels are suitable for piercing, so a professional assessment is essential. ## Aftercare and Healing Navel piercings are surface piercings and require a longer healing period than many other piercings. - **Healing Time** – Typically **up to 12 weeks**, sometimes longer. - **Aftercare** – Clean daily with saline solution and avoid touching or twisting jewellery. - **Risks** – Infection or rejection can occur if aftercare is not followed. Outie navels or certain anatomy types may carry higher risks. * * * ## Why Choose a Navel Piercing? Navel piercings are a timeless and versatile body piercing, easy to style with a wide range of jewellery once healed. Whether subtle or bold, they add personality and style to the midsection and remain a popular choice worldwide. * * * Book your professional navel piercing at Face Facts in Buxton for a safe experience, expert placement and full aftercare guidance.
