Eyebrow Piercing Jewelry:

The eyebrow piercing is usually placed perpendicular to the eyebrow. Piercings placed vertically usually cause the ring to protrude. Piercings that are slanted inwards (\ /) tend to make the ring lay flat. The depth of the piercing should be determined with regards to how much tissue is available to support the piercing. Most eyebrow piercings are usually between 1/4" and 3/8" wide. To avoid damaging the nerves beneath the eyebrow the piercing should not be made much deeper. Placing the piercing through the outermost half of the brow will avoid damaging the Supraorbital nerve. Because the brow is usually relatively flat, eyebrow piercings have a greater tendency than other piercings to migrate or reject. If the brow is completely flat and cannot be easily pinched, the tension of the skin creates pressure on the jewelry which may cause the piercing to migrate or even reject completely. In some cases the piercing will shift or migrate slightly while healing but will eventually settle. The piercing should not be made excessively deep on the assumption that it will migrate into place. Jewelry which is too thin is more easily rejected by the body and more likely to tear the piercing if the jewelry is accidentally pulled. Jewelry which is too heavy for the amount of tissue available can cause the piercing to migrate or reject. Prolonged healing, scarring and migration often result if the wearer sleeps on his/her piercings.

Initial jewelry: Captive bead rings in 18 to 14 gauge and 3/8" to 7/16" in diameter; the diameter should be at least 1/8" wider than width of the piercing. No more than 1/4 of the ring should be through the piercing. A ring which is too small in diameter will often cause the piercing to migrate or scar.
