What Is a Nose Bridge Piercing?
A nose bridge piercing—sometimes called an Erl piercing—is a horizontal surface piercing placed across the bridge of the nose, between the eyes. Contrary to popular belief, it doesn’t pierce bone or cartilage; instead, it goes through the skin, making it technically a surface piercing.
Why It’s Trending

Clean, minimalist aesthetic
-
A favorite among fans of futuristic or cyberpunk-inspired looks
-
Easily paired with other piercings (eyebrow, septum, nostril)
-
Great for showcasing unique jewelry designs
This piercing is not for the faint of heart—but for those who love to stand out, it’s a bold and creative way to express yourself.

Avoid makeup, skincare products, or facial cleansers near the piercing.
-
Sleep on your back to avoid pressure.
Don’t:
-
Touch or twist the jewelry unnecessarily.

Use alcohol or peroxide-based cleaners.
-
Change your jewelry too early.
Healing Timeline
-
Most nose bridge piercings take 8–12 weeks to heal.

Some may take longer depending on skin sensitivity and piercing depth.
Watch for signs of rejection, such as redness that won’t go away, thinning skin over the bar, or jewelry migrating from its original placement. If these occur, consult a professional piercer immediately.

FAQs
Does a nose bridge piercing go through bone?
No. It’s a surface piercing that only goes through skin—not bone or cartilage.
How painful is a nose bridge piercing?
Most people report mild to moderate discomfort, similar to other surface piercings. It’s usually less painful than cartilage.
Can I wear glasses with a nose bridge piercing?
Yes, but choose jewelry with a low-profile design (like flat ends) to prevent interference with your glasses.
How do I know if my nose bridge jewelry fits correctly?
Your jewelry should lie flat against the skin without excessive pressure. If it feels too tight or moves excessively, consult your piercer.
