The Nipple

Nipple piercing is practiced on a regular basis. This piercing hurts a lot for a few seconds but the sensual and attractiveness is wonderful.

This piercing on men also encourages the nipple to become larger and more pronounced. Unless a mans nipples are already large, this piercing is performed into the areola (the pigment area around the nipple) along a centered plane on the nipple. Minimum placement is 10mm apart.

Female nipple piercing was in vogue among the women of France during the reign of Louis XIV and in England during the reign of Queen Victoria. This piercing is sensual and very attractive and encourages the nipple to become larger and more pronounced. Female nipple piercing is located at the base of the nipple where it joins the plane of the breast. The piercing needs to be a minimum of 10mm apart and should not go into the areola (the pigmented area around the nipple). This piercing is less painful than the nipple piercing of men.

Nipple piercing may burrow through some of the milk producing ducts and cause infections or problems if a woman wishes to breast-feed an infant later in life.
