💡 What Is a Septum Piercing?
A septum piercing goes through the small, soft bit of skin (the “sweet spot”) between the nostrils - not through cartilage, contrary to common belief. It allows for an amazing range of jewellery styles, from bold statement pieces to subtle, hidden rings.
Perfect for:
Edgy aesthetics
Alternative styles
Professional versatility (can be flipped up inside the nose!)
People wanting a bold, central facial piercing
😬 Does a Septum Piercing Hurt?
Pain is relative, but most people describe septum piercings as more of a pressure than a sharp pain. It’s over in just seconds.
Pain level: 4–6/10
Procedure time: Under 5 minutes
You may experience a brief eye-watering moment, but that’s completely normal.
🩹 Healing Time & Aftercare
Average healing time: 6 to 8 weeks (initial), up to 3–4 months for full healing
Our team will walk you through a full aftercare routine, including:
✅ Clean twice daily with sterile saline solution
🚫 Avoid twisting, flipping, or touching the jewellery
💨 Don’t submerge the piercing in pools or hot tubs
💧 Avoid makeup or skincare products near the area
We’re always available for follow-up support or check-ups during the healing process.

❓ Septum Piercing FAQs
Q: Can I flip the ring up for work?
Yes! Most septum jewellery (like horseshoe rings or retainers) can be discreetly flipped inside your nose once the swelling goes down.
Q: What if I want to remove it later?
Septum piercings close fairly quickly if removed. But no pressure - we’ll always talk you through long-term care and removal.
Q: Is it safe for people with allergies?
Absolutely. Our standard jewellery is implant-grade titanium, ideal for sensitive skin.
