Anti-Tragus Piercings: Titanium Curved Barbells & Segment Rings
Collection: anti-tragus | Gauge: 16g (1.2mm) | Recommended Length: 8–10mm | Material: ASTM F136 Implant-Grade Titanium
The anti-tragus piercing is a distinctive ear modification piercing the small bump opposite the tragus, sitting between the tragus and anti-helix. This unique placement demands specialised 16-gauge curved barbells and segment rings crafted from ASTM F136 implant-grade titanium. Anti-tragus piercings require precision placement by experienced piercers; our inventory stocks jewellery in optimal 8–10mm lengths for comfortable healing and long-term wear. Whether you prefer subtle polished finishes, vibrant anodised colours, or decorative titanium ends, our anti-tragus collection balances medical-grade biocompatibility with fashion-forward aesthetics.
Anti-tragus piercings have gained popularity among UK body jewellery collectors seeking lesser-known ear modifications. The curved contour of this placement makes it ideal for segment rings and clickers, allowing seamless visual transitions and comfortable daily wear. Our titanium jewellery resists allergens, tarnishing, and discolouration, ensuring your piercing remains healthy and beautiful throughout healing and beyond. Healing takes 6–9 months; proper aftercare with quality titanium jewellery minimises infection and rejection. Complementary piercings include tragus jewellery, snug piercings, and conch jewellery.

Frequently Asked Questions
What gauge is an anti-tragus piercing?
Anti-tragus piercings are typically pierced at 16G (1.2mm), the standard cartilage gauge. Some piercers may use 18G (1.0mm) depending on anatomy. Always confirm with your piercer before buying jewellery.
What jewellery fits an anti-tragus piercing?
Curved barbells and small segment rings are the most common styles for anti-tragus piercings. Curved barbells are preferred for initial healing as they accommodate swelling, while rings can be worn once fully healed.
How long does an anti-tragus piercing take to heal?
Anti-tragus piercings typically take 6 to 12 months to fully heal. The anti-tragus is a thick section of ear cartilage, so healing times tend towards the longer end. Avoid changing jewellery until your piercer confirms healing is complete.
