Tragus Piercing made according to anatomy.

The Tragus piercing is done on the small cartilage located in front of the ear canal.

The size of the tragus, the thickness of the cartilage, and the shape of the area influence the positioning and type of suitable jewellery.

For an overview of the procedure, you can consult How a piercing is done, and for information about discomfort, see the page Exploring the pain caused by piercing.

Tragus jewellery

For this type of piercing, studs or small barbells are frequently used, chosen according to anatomy and initial inflammation.

After the area stabilises, the jewellery can be changed to a finer model, a thin hoop, or a piece with crystals.

Healing of the Tragus piercing

The initial period is about 30 days, but complete healing of the cartilage can take between 3 and 6 months.

During this time, it is important to avoid pressure, sleeping on the side with the piercing, and premature jewellery changes.
