Septum piercing is one of the most iconic piercings in the world. With a history dating back to ancient cultures and a strong presence in current fashion, this piercing combines attitude, versatility, and elegance.
What is a septum piercing?
Septum piercing is done in the thin layer of tissue just below the central cartilage of the nose — known as the "sweet spot." This area has neither bone nor hard cartilage, making piercing easier when performed by an experienced professional. Visually, it can be discreet or bold, depending on the type of jewelry chosen.
What jewelry should I wear for my septum piercing?
At Pierceptive, we always recommend jewelry made from implant-grade titanium (ASTM F-136). This material is hypoallergenic, extremely lightweight, and ideal for reducing the risk of infections or allergic reactions.
Popular options include:
- Horseshoe – A versatile classic, easy to hide if needed.
- Segment Ring – Elegant and minimalist
- Clicker Rings – Ideal for those who want a more decorative and elaborate design.
Avoid jewelry with external threads or made of steel, costume jewelry, or silver, especially during the healing period.
Ideal Measurements for Septum Jewelry
- Bar thickness: 1.2 mm (most common)
- Internal diameter: varies between 6 mm and 10 mm, depending on the anatomy and the desired visual effect.
At Pierceptive, we help you choose the perfect size based on your piercing type and style.
Essential Septum Piercing Care
Although it heals relatively quickly, a deviated septum requires rigorous care:
- Cleanse with saline solution twice a day.
- Do not touch the jewelry with dirty hands.
- Avoid applying makeup or creams near the nose area.
- Avoid replacing the jewelry prematurely.
Advantages of titanium in septum piercings
Implant-grade titanium is the material most recommended by professional piercers worldwide. Piercepective, we work exclusively with high-quality titanium, with:
- Internal thread (more comfortable and secure)
- Anodized finishes (various colors without using paint)
