Dermal piercing

Dermal piercings are small points of jewellery set directly into the skin. They do not pass through like traditional piercings. Each one sits on its own, creating a precise highlight. Dermal piercings allow you to accentuate your body subtly. They can be a single spark of metal or part of a delicate pattern. Their simplicity is what makes them striking. 

At Ace Tattooz, we plan every dermal piercing to suit your body and your style. Placement matters. The right piercing looks natural. It feels like it has always belonged there. We focus on balance, comfort, and clean lines. 

Dermal Piercing Placement Ideas

Where you place a dermal piercing changes the way it catches attention. Every location interacts differently with your movement, posture, and clothing. Choosing a spot is as much about how it feels as how it looks. 

Collarbone Dermal Piercing

A piercing along the collarbone draws subtle light across the skin. One small stud can highlight the natural curve, while two or three create a quiet rhythm. It moves gently as you shift and adds elegance without being loud. 

Back Dermal Piercing

Upper or lower back dermals offer discreet beauty. They can be lined up for symmetry or scattered for an organic feel. They suit designs that are visible only when you want them to be. 

Wrist Dermal Piercing

A dermal on the wrist is immediately noticeable. Its visibility gives it presence, while its size keeps it understated. Careful placement prevents discomfort and ensures it sits comfortably. 

Hip Dermal Piercing

Hip piercings are private accents. Clothing covers most of the jewellery, letting it peek out in glimpses. Placement depends on skin firmness and body contours. When done correctly, it creates a soft, personal highlight. 

Face Dermal Piercing

Cheek or temple dermals frame features naturally. They require precision, but when aligned correctly, they enhance your facial balance. They can complement other piercings without crowding the area. 

Hand and Finger Dermal Piercing

Small piercings on fingers or the back of the hand create subtle highlights. They are highly visible and work best when kept minimal. Each one draws attention gently. 

Each placement carries its own energy. The right spot enhances your anatomy and complements your style. 

Why Choose Ace Tattooz for Dermal Piercings?

Dermal piercings are precise work. They demand care, skill, and patience. At Ace Tattooz, we handle each piercing as a unique piece of art. 

1

Trained Piercers

Our piercers understand anatomy and design. They carefully measure, mark, and insert anchors. Every piercing is designed to be both comfortable and long-lasting. 

2

Sterile Environment

Hygiene is crucial. All tools, needles, and surfaces are sanitised prior to use. We follow a clean technique. 

3

Quality Jewellery

We use medical grade titanium, surgical steel, and solid gold. These materials reduce irritation while allowing the piercing to heal evenly.

Personal Consultation

We guide you through placement, jewellery choice, and what to expect during healing. Every decision is informed. Every piercing is planned. 

Trending Dermal Piercing Styles

Dermal piercings can be minimal or intricate. The trends change, but the appeal of a well-placed highlight remains. 

Minimalist Studs

Single studs create quiet, elegant points of interest. They catch light subtly and suit almost any body area. Their simplicity gives them lasting appeal. 

Cluster Arrangements

Groups of piercings add texture and depth. Symmetrical clusters feel structured, while irregular arrangements feelorganic. They create visual interest without being overwhelming. 

Geometric Patterns

Lines and shapes formed by multiple dermals give a sculptural quality. They follow the natural curves of the body and make a clean, intentional statement. 

Gemstone Highlights

Small gemstones add shimmer and colour. They can match other jewellery or stand alone as subtle accent points. 

Mixed Metals

Using different metals or finishes creates visual contrast. A mix of silver and gold, for example, adds dimension and modernity while remaining understated. 

Dermal piercings allow you to explore design freely. They can be as subtle or as artistic as you choose. 

How to Choose
the Right Dermal Piercing

Choosing a dermal piercing is not only about aesthetics. Your body, lifestyle, and care routine matter as much as the jewellery. 

1

Understand Your Anatomy

Skin thickness and firmness vary. Experienced piercers assess each area to ensure the piercing can hold the anchor safely. 

2

Consider Your Style

Decide if you want subtle highlights or a more noticeable design. Minimal studs are understated. Clusters or patterns create focus. 

3

Healing and Maintenance

Dermal piercings take two to four months to settle. Placement affects healing. Areas that experience movement or friction may need more attention. 

4

Jewellery Material

Choose metals that are safe for your skin, such as titanium or surgical steel. Proper materials reduce irritation and support even healing. 

5

Trust Professional Guidance

Inspiration from images is helpful, but piercers provide essential advice. They know how tissue tension, anchor depth, and jewellery type affect healing and final appearance. 

When placement, material, and design work together, your piercing looks natural and sits comfortably. 

Dermal Piercing Aftercare Tips

Aftercare is critical. It ensures your piercing heals well and stays secure. 

Use sterile saline solution twice daily. Dab gently. Avoid twisting the jewellery. Wash your hands before touching the piercing. 

Keep lotions, perfumes, and makeup away from the area. Chemicals can irritate and slow healing. 

Avoid clothing or accessories that rub the piercing. Gentle handling supports healing. 

Mild redness or tenderness is normal at first. Persistent swelling, pain, or discharge requires professional evaluation. 

Avoid swimming until the piercing is fully healed. Exposure to bacteria increases infection risk. 

Proper care allows dermal piercings to settle naturally and remain visually appealing.

Frequently asked questions

How painful is a dermal piercing?

Pain differs from person to person, but most describe it as a sharp, sudden sensation that lasts only a moment. The area may feel tender for a day or two following the piercing, but the discomfort usually goes away quickly. 

Healing typically takes between two and four months. Areas with more movement or friction may take a little longer. Follow the aftercare instructions carefully to ensure proper healing. 

Wear jewellery made from skin-safe materials such as titanium, surgical steel, or solid gold. These metals soothe irritation and promote healing. While healing, avoid wearing cheap or nickel-based jewellery. 

You can shower normally, but avoid getting soaps, lotions, or perfumes on the piercing. Swimming in pools, hot tubs, or open water should be avoided until the wound has healed completely, as bacteria can cause infection. 

Mild redness or tenderness is normal at first. If swelling, pain, or discharge persists, gently clean the area with a sterile saline solution twice daily. Contact your piercer or a doctor if the irritation does not improve.
