Navel Piercing in Metz: The Complete Guide

Navel piercing remains one of the most popular choices in Metz, especially as the warm season approaches. But be careful, this piercing requires patience and rigorous aftercare.

When to Get It? The Ideal Timing

Contrary to popular belief, summer is not the best time for a navel piercing.

• Why? It is strongly advised against swimming (pool, sea, Lake Madine) for the first 2 months to avoid infections.
• Autumn/Winter: This is the ideal period to arrive at the following summer with already well-advanced healing!

Jewelry Selection at Owink Studio

We don't compromise on quality. Your initial jewelry will be made of ASTM F-136 implant-grade Titanium.

• No "surgical" steel: Which often contains nickel, a source of allergies.
• Adapted shape: A curved bar (banana) whose length allows for initial swelling.

Pain and Healing

• Pain: Very bearable, often rated 3/10. It's a quick pinching sensation.
• Healing time: This is the sensitive point. The navel is an area of constant friction (clothing, belts). Plan for 6 to 9 months for complete healing.

[!CAUTION] Avoid high-waisted pants that compress the piercing during the initial healing phase!
