A Body Modifyer's Guide To Dermal Piercing Atlanta

By Shawn Hunter


Fans of body modification are always looking for ways to change their appearance. Whether it is through tattooing, lobe stretching or other elaborate methods, a person can dramatically alter the way they look. One of the more popular methods is getting a dermal piercing Atlanta. Here is what you need to know about these modifications and how to receive one that is safe and attractive.

The style of piercing that most people are familiar with include using a metal needle to punch a hole through tissue. This is usually done on the ears, the nose, the face and other protruding areas of the body. Jewelry is then slid into place and the area heals. Knowing the difference between this and dermal implantation as well as the differences in healing and aftercare are important when deciding if you want to have this procedure performed on your body.

There are a few reasons why people like these types of modifications. One is that flat areas that would be difficult to pierce using traditional methods can be decorated easily with microdermals. Other people like the fact that the small beads can be formed into a number of different patterns.

You may have noticed that microdermals are firmly attached to the skin. This is because the surface jewelry is attached to a base plate that is inserted under the skin. To do this, a pouch is created under the surface of the skin. The professional will use a needle or a punch to create a pouch and the base plate is slid into this area through the hole in the skin. Some individuals prefer to use needles and others prefer to use a punch.

Although there are many individuals who are performing body modification in Atlanta GA, not all of them will place dermal implants. You need different equipment such as needles and punches and also need practice and training in order to know how to place the jewelry safely and attractively. You may need to speak with a few different professionals before you find someone that is able to help you.

When looking for someone to perform this procedure, it is important to make sure you are dealing with a reputable professional. You will want to make sure that the facility is clean and that all of the equipment and jewelry is properly sterilized. If you know someone who has had this procedure done you may want to ask where they went and whether they are happy with the results and service that they received.

In order to prevent infection or the rejection of your jewelry by your body, you need to care for the area. It isn't difficult but you do need to remember to clean the area and watch for signs of infection. Using salt water will help soothe the area and reduce inflammation. You may also want to cover the area with a band-aid when swimming or performing similar activities.

Having any body modification procedure performed can be a huge decision to make. If you deal with a reputable parlor and take care of your jewelry properly you can enjoy your new dermal implant for many years to come.
