What is a smiley piercing?

Another name for a smiley face piercing is a frenulum piercing. The smiley piercing is placed through the frenulum in the mouth hence "frenulum" piercing. What is a frenulum! The frenulum in your mouth is such a small piece of skin that connects your upper lip to the upper gums. It is visible only when you smile. Hence the name "smiley" piercing. It is a subtle surprise for those who want a less visible but bold piercing.

The smiley piercing will not be suitable for everyone, as the frenulum skin may be too small or thin to place a piercing on it. A professional piercer will first need to see if your frenulum skin is large and thick enough. If the piercer says this is not possible on you, listen to your piercer and don't look for another one. Your frenulum can tear if the piercing is poorly placed or your skin is too thin. A torn mouth frenulum is really not pleasant. If your piercer does not inspect your mouth before placing the piercing, get out of there! A professional piercer does not have to be a dentist to see if your frenulum can handle a smiley piercing.

As with any piercing, pain depends from person to person. One person experiences pain very differently from another. It also depends on your environmental factors: are you having a bad day and just more stressed? This also has an influence! Your piercing will have to go through a frenulum that should be thick enough, but this is still thinner than your earlobe. Because of this, this piercing may hurt a little more than an ear piercing. How much does an ear piercing hurt? This also depends from person to person. But good news: Since the frenulum is not that thick, the needle goes through faster so this piercing only takes a few seconds. Breathe in and out deeply, it will be over before you know it.
