Dermal Piercings
What is a dermal piercing?
A dermal piercing is a single-point piercing with a small anchor placed beneath the skin and a decorative jewel sitting on the surface.
Do dermal piercings hurt?
Most clients describe a quick pinch and some pressure. The procedure is usually very quick.
How long do dermal piercings take to heal?
Initial healing commonly takes around 1 to 3 months, although some placements require longer.
Where can I have a dermal piercing?
Popular placements include the cheekbone, chest, collarbone, hips and back. Our piercer will assess your anatomy and the suitability of your chosen placement.
Are dermal piercings permanent?
Not always. Dermals can last for years but may eventually migrate or reject.
What is dermal rejection?
Rejection occurs when the body gradually pushes the anchor towards the surface of the skin.
Will a dermal piercing leave a scar?
A small scar is possible, particularly if the piercing rejects or experiences trauma.
Can I choose my own jewellery?
We offer jewellery options, and you can discuss specific styles with Kelly. All jewellery must be suitable for your placement, anatomy and the healing process.
Can I change my dermal jewellery?
Many dermals have interchangeable decorative tops. We recommend professional jewellery changes, particularly during healing.
Can I shower after a dermal piercing?
Yes. Showering is generally fine, but avoid soaking the piercing in swimming pools, hot tubs or baths while healing.
How do I clean a dermal piercing?
Gently clean with sterile 0.9% saline wound wash as directed. Avoid twisting, picking or touching unnecessarily.
Can I sleep on my dermal piercing?
Avoid direct pressure while healing, as this can contribute to irritation or migration.
Can dermal piercings be removed?
Yes. A qualified professional can assess the anchor and advise on safe removal. Never attempt to pull it out yourself.
How do I know if my dermal is infected?
Increasing redness, warmth, swelling, pain, pus or feeling unwell can indicate infection. Seek medical advice promptly.
How much does a dermal piercing cost?
Prices vary depending on placement and jewellery choice. Message us for details.

Specialist Body & Genital Piercings with Kelly
"If you can pinch it, we can pierce it!"
At S-Line Studios, we're proud to offer an extensive range of specialist body piercings with our experienced piercer, Kelly.
From classic ear piercings and beautiful dermals to more unusual and intimate placements, Kelly is passionate about helping clients achieve their ideal piercing.
Whether you're looking for something subtle, something unique or a specialist genital piercing, Kelly can discuss your ideas, assess your anatomy and advise on suitable options.
What types of piercings does Kelly offer?
Kelly offers a comprehensive range of piercings, including ears, nose, lips, tongue, navel, facial, dermal and specialist genital piercings. All placements are subject to individual anatomical suitability and safety assessment.
What types of genital piercings are available?
Options can include VCH, HCH, Christina, Prince Albert and other specialist genital piercings. Kelly can talk you through suitable options based on your anatomy and preferences.
Do genital piercings hurt?
The sensation depends on the placement and individual sensitivity. Most clients describe a brief, sharp sensation, and the procedure is usually very quick.
Can genital piercings increase sexual pleasure?
Some clients report increased sensation or pleasure with certain piercings, although results vary and cannot be guaranteed.
How long do genital piercings take to heal?
Healing depends on the placement. Some piercings may heal in approximately 4 to 8 weeks, while others take several months or longer.
Can I have sex after a genital piercing?
Gentle sexual activity may be possible once you're comfortable, provided friction, trauma and contact with bodily fluids are avoided. Appropriate barriers and careful hygiene are important during healing.
Can I receive oral sex with a fresh piercing?
Avoid direct saliva contact with a healing piercing. Appropriate barriers can help reduce exposure.
Can I get a genital piercing while on my period?
Yes. Menstruation doesn't automatically prevent a genital piercing, provided hygiene and personal comfort are considered.
Can genital piercings affect sensitivity?
Yes. Some clients report changes in sensation. Although these may be desirable, unwanted sensitivity changes and tissue or nerve injury are also possible risks.
Will I need an anatomy assessment?
Yes, for certain placements. Kelly will explain the process beforehand, obtain your informed consent and ensure you're comfortable throughout.
Are genital piercing appointments private?
Absolutely. Intimate piercings are handled with professionalism, discretion and respect in a private treatment environment.
What age do I need to be for a genital piercing?
All genital piercings are strictly for clients aged 18 and over. Valid photographic identification is required. Parental consent does not override this restriction.
Can I choose specific jewellery for my piercing?
Yes! Kelly is happy to discuss particular jewellery designs, styles and preferences. If you have a specific earring or piece of jewellery in mind, please ask before your appointment. Jewellery must be sterile where required, made from an appropriate material, correctly sized and suitable for a fresh piercing. Not all jewellery can safely be used for initial piercing.
I'm scared of needles. Can Kelly help?
Of course! We understand that some clients feel nervous about needles. Kelly can explain the procedure, discuss suitable piercing methods and help make your appointment as relaxed and comfortable as possible. For suitable earlobe piercings, ask about available piercing systems. Sterile single-use needles are preferred for body piercings, and piercing guns are not suitable for cartilage or other body areas.
Does Kelly offer children's ear piercings?
Yes! Kelly offers suitable earlobe piercings for children from the age of five, with parent or legal guardian consent and an individual suitability assessment.
Can under-16s get pierced?
Certain non-intimate piercings may be available to under-16s with parent or legal guardian consent. The minimum age depends on the placement, anatomy and suitability of the piercing.
Can 16- and 17-year-olds get pierced?
Suitable non-intimate piercings may be available to clients aged 16 to 17. Valid photographic identification is required. Any applicable parental consent requirements must also be met.
Can under-18s get nipple or genital piercings?
No. Nipple and genital piercings are strictly restricted to adults aged 18 and over, regardless of parental consent.
How do I clean my new piercing?
Aftercare varies by placement, but generally involves gentle cleaning with sterile saline or clean water where appropriate. Avoid harsh products, unnecessary touching and excessive cleaning. You'll receive specific aftercare advice.
Can I go swimming with a fresh piercing?
Avoid swimming pools, hot tubs and potentially contaminated water until your piercing has sufficiently healed.
