Angel Bites Piercing: A Comprehensive Guide

An angel piercing is a double piercing, and it's one of the most stunning options out there. If you're considering this piercing, our article is the perfect place to start!

Placement: On both sides of the upper lip, symmetrically

Cost: $40-$120

Pain: mild to moderate pain

Heal time: 12-16 weeks

Jewelry: Labret studs

Material: Implant-grade titanium, surgical steel, sterling silver, and 14k gold are preferred materials

Risk: Infection, scarring, swelling, and gum damage.

An Angel bite piercing, also known as “fang piercing,” involves piercing two small holes in the upper lip, close to the nostrils. The location is very clever, giving the appearance of a touch of “angelic charm.”

It takes about 6–12 weeks for an Angel piercing to heal.

The pain of an angel puncture varies from person to person, but most people find it to be moderate. It hurts more when it is first administered, so it is best to talk to a professional puncture technician, who will give you appropriate advice.

Infection: If proper follow-up care is not taken, bacteria may enter the piercing site and cause an infection.

Scarring: Improperly healed or traumatized piercings may result in scarring.

Swelling: Some swelling usually occurs after a piercing and should subside as the piercing heals.

Gum damage: The location of the piercing can sometimes lead to accidental gum damage, especially if the jewelry is too long or improperly fitted.

When it comes to angel bite ring piercings, labret studs are the jewelry of choice. These studs are small and discreet, allowing the piercing to blend seamlessly with the natural contours of the face.

When choosing materials for jewelry, it's best to go for implant-grade titanium alloy, surgical-grade stainless steel, pure silver, or 14K gold. These options are great because they significantly reduce the risk of allergies and infections.

• Use saline or a piercing aftercare spray once or twice a day. Don't scrub; just gently care for it.
• Don't touch it unless you've washed your hands first—no one wants to deal with bacteria they didn't expect.
• To keep your mouth fresh, you should brush, floss, and use an alcohol-free mouthwash regularly.
• Wait until you're fully healed before you have any kind of mouth-to-mouth contact, like kissing or oral sex.
• Say no to alcohol, smoking, and super spicy or acidic foods. They'll only make things worse.
• Sleep smart so you don't smash your new piercing against the pillow.
• Check that your jewelry fits well. If it's too tight or too long, it can cause problems.
• Eat well and rest so your body can heal.
