Nasallang Piercing

A rare type of piercing, the Nasallang, goes through the nose from side to side, piercing both the nostrils and the cartilage inside. Its name comes from "nasal" and "lang" and directly refers to its unique location which crosses the nostrils as well as the nasal septum. This piercing is associated with alternative fashion and subcultures. The jewelry for the Nasallang piercing is the Straight Barbell Piercing which is the only one suitable for this piercing. The piercing must be performed by a professional with a straight needle as it requires great expertise and precision due to the complex anatomy of the nose. The pain level for this piercing is high as the needle must pierce the nasal cartilage three times through three cartilaginous walls. The price of a Nasallang piercing varies depending on the studio and ranges from €50 to €100.

Nasallang Piercing Jewelry

Our Surgical Steel Piercing bars are available with ball, spike, or zirconia ends. In our shop you will also find Titanium Barbell Piercing which is hypoallergenic and lighter than surgical steel, as well as Gold Barbell Piercing which is also hypoallergenic and provides a refined look. For even greater comfort, we offer our Bioflex Piercing bars that are flexible and adapt to the piercing hole but are less durable than metal piercings. While thinking about the length of the bar you must consider the thickness of the septum and nostrils. The ideal piercing bar depends on the anatomy of each individual and ranges from 18 mm to 22 mm in length and 1.2 mm to 1.6 mm in thickness (1.6 mm is more common for stability and healing). The Nasallang piercing carries risks ranging from moderate to high as a poorly performed Nasallang piercing can lead to misalignment, which can cause an infection risk or even rejection. The healing time is 4 to 6 months and depends on the individual.
