Definition
What is a eyebrow piercing?
Eyebrow piercing is a surface piercing placed through the brow ridge, usually with a curved titanium barbell.
An eyebrow piercing is a surface placement angled to the natural arch of your brow. We choose a titanium curved barbell or a minimal stud based on skin thickness and bone structure; correct angle decides both the balance of the face and how well it heals long term.
Variations

Healing
What the healing process looks like
First week
Swelling
Slight swelling and bruising around the brow is expected. Saline twice daily; keep make-up and skincare off the area.
Weeks 2–6
Settling
Redness fades and the channel forms. Avoid sunglasses that press on the jewellery and don't sleep face down.
Full healing
6–8 weeks
We shorten the bar once swelling is gone, which prevents snagging and migration.
- Short, sharp sensation
- Heals in 6–8 weeks
- Implant-grade titanium
- Angle mapped to facial symmetry

Pierced by Emir Çankaya
All piercings at NEXA are performed by Emir Çankaya, who plans the placement around your anatomy, uses single-use needles and fits implant-grade titanium jewellery at the correct length for swelling.
You can send a healing photo at any point during the first months; downsizing the jewellery after the swelling settles is part of the service.
