Frequently Asked Questions
What is a smiley piercing?
A smiley piercing passes through the upper lip frenulum, the thin fold of tissue connecting the upper lip to the gum. It is only visible when you smile, which is how it gets its name.
What jewellery is used for a smiley piercing?
Smiley piercings typically use a small seamless ring, segment ring or circular barbell in 16G (1.2mm) or 18G (1.0mm). The jewellery must be small enough to sit comfortably against the gum without causing irritation.
How long does a smiley piercing last?
Smiley piercings vary in longevity because the frenulum is thin tissue. Some people keep theirs for years while others experience migration or rejection. Using lightweight, high-quality titanium jewellery helps prolong the life of the piercing.
