There are many options for piercing – nose piercing:

Name	Piercing characteristic
Nostril	The wing of the nose is pierced in any of its areas. Earrings are used: rings, studs or small tunnels. A nostril screw is also used. It is screwed into the wound by the master, which reduces the possibility of loss of jewelry.
Septril	The nasal septum is pierced at the base and the cartilage tissue is not involved. A stud is inserted, its end is withdrawn from either side of the nostril and fixed.
Septum	The nasal septum is pierced at the top. In this case, grazing of the cartilages occurs, and the earring is threaded at their junction in order to reduce the injury to the nose. They use different earrings from massive to modest options.
Bridge	Between the eyebrows along the bridge of the nose, the master manually folds a fold horizontally or vertically relative to the nose and pierces the skin. This type is suitable for the formation of a significant influx of skin in this place. Otherwise, rejection or movement of the worn jewelry may occur. In the vertical version of the puncture, a curved earring is provided.
Puncture of the tip of the nose	The piercing is done behind the soft tissue of the tip of the nose. The puncture can be vertical or horizontal. Insert small rods. In this form, you also need to capture a larger volume of skin for a good engraftment of the jewelry..
Austin Bar	The part of the nose above the tip and located horizontally, without affecting the cartilage, is subject to a puncture. Use long earrings.
Nasal septum puncture	Differs in complexity. The canal is pierced with a long needle in the sequence: one wing of the nose – cartilage – the second wing of the nose. A long earring is inserted – a bar.

In the first days of a puncture, the piercing requires simple but thorough care in the form of rinsing with chlorhexidine or miramistin 3-4 times a day, as well as refusal to touch the earring and the puncture site with your hands..

Nose piercing takes some getting used to. For example, you will not be able to wipe your nose in the usual way – you will need to soak it. When changing the earring in the wing, all actions must be done on the exhale, so as not to inhale the decoration element. When caring for a puncture during the healing period (about 6 – 8 weeks), you should not use cosmetics: powder or foundation, in order to exclude an additional irritating factor.
