💡 Why Choose a Nostril Piercing?
A nostril piercing is a low-commitment, high-style option that works with almost any face shape or personal aesthetic.
Why people love it:
Fast, simple procedure
Easy to dress up or keep subtle
Suitable for both nostrils
Works with a variety of jewellery types (studs, hoops, chains, and more)
Quick healing and low maintenance
It's also one of the most popular starter piercings due to its versatility and relatively low pain.
🔍 How Is a Nostril Piercing Done?
At Timebomb Bournemouth, we follow strict hygiene procedures and use only sterile, single-use needles—never piercing guns.
Here’s what to expect:
Consultation – We’ll discuss your desired placement and jewelry.
Marking – The exact location is marked and shown to you in the mirror.
Piercing – A sterile needle is used to pierce the nostril in seconds.
Jewelry Insertion – A titanium stud is inserted.
Aftercare Advice – We’ll walk you through healing and maintenance.
The whole process typically takes under 5 minutes.
😬 Does It Hurt?
Pain is subjective, but nostril piercings are generally considered mild to moderate on the pain scale.
Pain level: 2–4/10
Most people say it feels like a quick pinch followed by a watery eye - done before you know it.
⏳ Healing Time & Aftercare
Average healing time: 2–4 months
Although it’s one of the quicker healing piercings, it’s important to follow your aftercare routine carefully to avoid irritation or infection.
Aftercare tips:
Clean twice daily with sterile saline solution
Avoid touching or twisting the jewellery
Do not change jewellery until fully healed
Be careful when washing your face or blowing your nose
Timebomb offers full support during the healing process - if you have questions or need a check-up, we’re here to help.
💷 How Much Does It Cost?
At Timebomb Bournemouth, nostril piercings are priced at:
£25, including professional piercing and implant-grade titanium jewelry
There are no hidden fees - your aftercare guidance and safety are part of the experience.
🤧 Stud or Hoop – What’s Best for Healing?
We will always pierce with a titanium stud because it offers more stability while the piercing heals. Hoops can sometimes move more and cause irritation during early healing stages.
Once you’re fully healed, we can help you switch to a hoop, ring, or custom piece.
