Is it possible to do eyebrow piercing?
Yes, eyebrow piercing is not strictly prohibited, but the piercing should be carried out by an experienced specialist, since the optic nerve passes through the “puncture territory”, and in order not to hurt it, you need to have knowledge in the field of anatomy. You should not carry out an eyebrow piercing with a novice master, as he may not know where to pierce an eyebrow without consequences. In order not to touch the nerve, the eyebrow is pierced vertically or diagonally, but closer to the temple. It is unlikely that the master will pierce the eyebrow in the area from the bridge of the nose to the middle of the eyebrow, since in addition to the optic nerve, this area has a large number of biologically active points that can be touched during a puncture.

Punctures on the bridge of the nose are the most painful, punctures in the area of ​​​​the eyebrow from the middle to the end, the “tail” of the eyebrow are practically not felt and are carried out even without anesthesia. But in any case, blood will flow, which will finally stop only after the wound has healed. Usually, healing occurs the next or second day after the puncture. If one of the larger blood vessels is affected, a bruise may occur.
