I would like to hear from folks here who have had their nipples pierced at home. Perhaps you did your own, or your Dom(me) did it for you. Has anyone had them pierced with safety pins, and what kind of result did you achieve?

thanks!

hello ,several years ago as i collared me slave I pierced her nipples, I used a piercing needle . i think you should use as well , it will cut a small piece of flesh out as you pierce leaveing a hold for the rings ,do use safe and clean equipment it will be for her / his own good ,,,,p.s --a safety pin is not a good idea

One thing that I'd like to mention is that the nipple is full of nerve bundles and ducts, and the channel created during piercing can collect bacteria and fungi very easily, making it prone to infection which can then enter the ducts and travel throughout the breast tissue.

In addition, using jewelry that is of the wrong materials (piercing jewelry for new piercings should be autoclave-sterilized surgical-grade stainless steel or autoclave-sterilized surgical-grade titianium ONLY) or of too large or small a gauge can complicate healing, promote migration or keloids, and increase the risk of infection.

Using properly sterilized equipment and having the work done by a professional who understands the anatomy of the human breast/nipple can prevent profound problems ranging from mastitis (a very painful breast infection) to sepsis to nipple necrosis.

As someone who -adores- pierced and tattooed human flesh, I beg you not to mess with amateur piercing and have your work done by someone skilled in the process. If you want your owner to do the piercing, I would still go to a professional piercer to have the area marked, have access to the proper tools, and have the piercer guide your Master through the proper technique to assure as safe a piercing experience and as good a healing process as possible. Most piercers are both familiar with and comfortable with many alternative ways of living and relating, and will be happy to help you get as close as possible to the experience you seek. Some will even come to your home to do the piercing, provided you can meet minimal safety/cleanliness requirements.

I agree (as usual, I love her) with Calla. I've had my nipples done at home, by my Leather Sistser, whos a kinky professional piercer. I suggest asking around your local scene, I can almost bet someones into temp piercing play around you, and could happily work a scene out with you and your man.

Check out some of the freakish "Things that can go wrong with nipple piercings" photos, specifically mastisis, if you're intent on doing this at home. Your dom can still be there while the piercing is done, and a scene-friendly piercer might let kinkyness take place with the piercing of some sort, but please have it done professionally.

Safety pin piercing is best done in places where a crazy-bad infection won't be the end of the world.

Edited to add, Note: looking at those photos is a very bad idea for queasy people like me...eep....

A Master (now ex) pierced one of my nipples but then he was qualified and had the piercing needle.
However earlier this year I simply developed an allergy to an eyebrow piercing (I had nose, eyebrow, belly button, tongue) and so took them out. All except for my nipple which showed no signs of reaction whatsoever. But given the fact that all my other piercings had gone I took the nipple piercing out. Ah well happy memories.
All piercing sites healed very quickly and show now signs of ever having been there.
But I would definitely advise getting piercings done by a professional.

I've bolded a portion of the above poster's statement as it is critical information.

To the OP. For whatever you hold holy? Do not let someone without the prerequisite experience and appropriate equipment pierce you. Anywhere. For any reason. I don't give a rat's backside if he is your dominant. Take responsibility for your own welfare and insist, vehemently if necessary, for a professional.

I had my nipples done by a scene friendly doctor. A year and a half after they had healed, I went for a mammogram. Apparently, the technician didn't clean the plates between patients. An abscess developed. I had surgery to remove it. I was lucky to catch it early. The scarring is minimal. I accept the scars as they're a lesson to my own folly.

Don't let my folly become yours. Don't get your nipples pierced. Anything else? Go for it.

Stay safe, play nice, & share your toys w/ others...

Ladies and gentleman :)
I am getting your message loud and clear, and thank your for your concern. Truly.

This was a choice He left up to me.

Bella, why do you say pierce anything else...would that not also carry similar risks?

I have pierced a good few nipples in my time but then I am trained.
Your Dominant could get this absolutely right. He can order the correct sterile gauge needle, the right jewelry, do his homework on what part of the nipple to pierce and all the things that are going to put you in a very clean environment but the two things that he should be very aware of is that some people find having their nipples pierced almost unbearably painful. Once he starts he can't hang around or your probably going to end up backing out half way through and the other is getting it straight. I have seen so many wonky (self done) nipple piercings and believe me, your not going to be saying 'oh its wonky, shall we try that again?'

Read the post again. I bolded a portion of a previous poster's response as I quoted her, because she's spot on. There's less likelihood of infection in other areas of the female body because they don't have the same composition as do the breasts. Your nipple is the gateway to the ducts. Ducts, when pierced, can become channels for bacteria and fungi to gather in. This can lead to infection.

Despite the extraordinary care I took during the healing and period of time after, I still got an infection. Due to the negligence of a medical provider. Learn from my folly. Don't do your nipples. Find any area of the body without this network of channels and have a blast. I personally find body modifications erotic as hell. If your dominant is deeply concerned with your well being? He can read this and learn from it.

Stay safe, play nice, & share your toys w/ others...

Bella

Telling someone to not get a piercing, because it could become infected, is like telling someone not to get a tattoo because it could hurt.

Anything can get infected, thats RACK for you.

Mine got infected once, I took proper care of the infection, and everything is fine now. And I'd do it again in a heartbeat, for me the benefit out weighs the risk.

Tattoos and piercings aren't even in the same ballpark. Oy.

Bandying about an acronym is all fine and well. Until something goes wrong and someone's living with the damages. As to benefits versus risks, don't love yourself much do you? *shrugs* The OP came here looking for opinions. She got mine. Now she has yours. Both are equally valid, for the individuals concerned.

Wow, where did you even come up with that idea?

Informationally, I have both nipples pierced (have for 10 years), and am preparing for 2nd rings (vertical this time). I have pierced ears and a pierced septum that is closed now because I couldn't wear jewelry in it at work for safety reasons and got tired of replacing my spacers. I will be replacing my brow piercings (migrated, which is -very- common for brow piercings) once I retire from where I'm working. Next summer, I will be having two of my tattoos augmented with surface piercings. I love myself -very- much, thank you.

RACK= Risk Aware Consensual Kink... Emphasis on Risk Aware. Risk aware means "I understand the risks, and accept responsibility for the outcomes." Sometimes, the outcomes aren't awesome. I take responsibility for having made the decision to go that direction. I'm an adult and get to do that, ya know... but just because another adult makes a decision you don't like doesn't mean that they don't love themselves.

^^^^^^

Informationally, -anything- that is pierced has a chance of becoming infected. Nipples are no worse than septums (which can cause an infection in the cartilage), brows (which can cause an infection in the optic nerve), belly buttons (which can cause an infection in the abdominal cavity), etc. A piercing is a channel through thick (and sometimes extremely dense) tissue. It can draw infection through the shield layer of the skin into the interior of the body, and close to nerves, duct systems, and the blood supply. Taking reasonable precautions is important, and knowing or having someone who knows anatomy can save a lot of regret. Infections hurt, but in most cases, with proper treatment, will heal up well -- and if an individual is really uncomfortable with the possibility of there being problems, then that person certainly should seriously consider whether xhe is really comfortable with getting pierced at all, because there are risks, and it's ok to not find those risks reasonable -to you-.

*Use sterilized equipment that is designed for piercing and which is opened right in front of you.

*Do -not- get pierced (even your earlobes!!!) with a piercing gun, which can retain blood and tissue from client to client and does not get completely clean even if the needle is replaced between clients.

*Practice good aftercare.

*Avoid irritating the new piercing as much as possible...

*If the piercing or surrounding tissue -does- become infected, the absolute -worst- thing you can do is remove the jewelry from the piercing -- taking out the jewelry can trap the infection in the wound, as the openings close over with the infection inside. Clear up the infection and -then-, if you don't want your jewelry any more, take it out.
