Clavicle Piercing
Body piercing is something that has become a craze among the youth all around the world. Adorning the face as well as the body with stones and jewels is considered to be highly stylish as well as fashionable. In such a scenario, one cannot be surprised to observe the introduction of new types of piercings. Among the different types of body piercings that have emerged in recent times, the newest as well as the rarest piercing is the clavicle or collarbone piercing. It is a form of surface piercing which goes underneath the collarbone and has exit points on both the sides of the collarbone. Though this piercing looks absolutely stylish, it is quite dangerous and carries a high risk of infection. Therefore, people who are planning to get it done, should first know about it in detail before taking any decision.
Piercing Information
It is done by penetrating the inner body cavity. As this piercing is comparatively a new one in the list of piercings, the procedure of doing it is not very clear. The only thing that is known is that the piercing has two ends i.e. on both sides of the collarbone and goes beneath it. As this is a piercing that goes through the inner body cavity, there are high chances of nerve or artery damage, infection, rejection, scarring, etc. and hence, the piercing should be done only by a professional who has a clear idea about human anatomy.
Before selecting a piercer, do proper research and talk to people who have done it. One good way of doing this is by searching the Internet as there are various sites where people who have done this piercing have talked about their experiences. Also, talking to a good piercing expert about the procedure in detail will help in making matters clear. One must understand that the piercing involves the inner body cavity, the pain one will feel during the piercing will surely be much higher than all other piercings. Hence, before going to the piercer, it is important to make oneself completely ready to experience anything that happens during the piercing.
It is also important to talk about the piercing price before deciding on the piercer or the body piercing studio. As this is quite a difficult kind of piercing, the price of doing this will also be quite high. However, factors like the location, kind of studio, etc. also matter when it comes to the price of getting it done. This special type of piercing should be adorned only by a special kind of jewelry. As the piercing has to reach the other side of the collarbone, the jewelry has to be a long curved barbell. The length of this barbell is almost three inches and is made of PTFE material.
Piercing Aftercare
As this piercing is complex, it is important to take appropriate aftercare to prevent any kind of scars as well as infection. The total healing time required for this piercing is 6-8 weeks, however, this will be different for every person. Nevertheless, it has been observed that though the exit points of the piercing heals fast, it actually takes a lot of time for the inner part of the piercing to heal. Hence, one must take care of the piercing for a long time. Just like all kinds of body piercings, the best way to help the piercing to heal is to soak it in salt water solution. This should be done at least 2 times everyday. Moreover, one should take extra care to prevent any object from irritating it. For instance, things like long hair, seat belt, tank tops are likely to irritate the piercing and can cause bruising and sometimes infection too.
As you now know the risks and dangers associated with this kind of piercing, you must take the decision of getting this piercing done very carefully. Also, if you get the piercing done and observe any signs of infection or excessive bleeding, consulting your doctor or piercer immediately can save you from facing any kind of complications.
