TOOL NOTES

Learn the placement from the angle that reveals it.

The interactive ear and face models connect common piercing names to mapped locations, approximate pain ranges, tissue type, and professional healing guidance.

How it works and common questionsRead notes
HOW TO USE IT
  1. Choose the ear or face model from the canvas.
  2. Drag to rotate until a mapped placement becomes active.
  3. Review its name, pain range, tissue, and healing guidance.
WHY IT HELPS
  • Makes unfamiliar piercing names visually understandable.
  • Shows placements in relation to surrounding anatomy and viewing angle.
  • Provides a useful starting point before a professional consultation.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Are piercing pain scores exact?

No. The displayed ranges are planning estimates. Technique, anatomy, stress, tissue thickness, jewellery, and personal pain tolerance can change the experience.

Why can cartilage piercings take longer to heal?

Cartilage has less blood flow than lobe tissue. Professional piercing guidance commonly lists ear cartilage at six to nine months or longer, while earlobes are often listed at six to eight weeks or longer.

Can everyone support every piercing placement?

No. Folds, ridges, available tissue, angles, and jewellery clearance vary across ears and faces. A professional piercer must inspect your anatomy before confirming a placement.

Do the 3D models represent my exact anatomy?

No. They are educational references for learning names and comparing general locations. They are not scans or suitability assessments of your anatomy.

How should I use the placement labels?

Rotate the selected model until a mapped point faces you. Its label and information will become active when that placement is visible from the intended angle.

Explore the placement, then confirm it with a professional piercer.
