Piercings have a long history - in every culture there are various forms of piercings and body modifications. While piercings were once mainly symbolic instruments of ornamentation, now they are fashionable and used to enhance appearances. Common piercing locations include the ears, the face, oral, genital, navel, and surface piercings. If there is skin or cartilage, it can probably be pierced!
Piercing techniques are generally the same - especially in America, where piercing conditions are closely monitored for health and safety reasons. A sterile hollow needle is passed through the skin/cartilage, followed by the insertion of the body jewelry into the hole. Piercing guns, the popular method of piercing in malls, are not good for piercing. Piercing guns cause damage to the surrounding tissues, and piercing guns are almost impossible to properly sterilize; when considering a new piercing, it will behoove you to go to a professional piercing shop where the people are highly trained.
