Inside: Classic examples of a back dimple piercing that you need.

You’re ready to do something bold. You’ve probably been thinking about this one for a while. The back dimple piercing is a powerful piercing, and definitely says you’re not scared of anything.

The styling options are limitless. They can look cute or they can look edgy, and it all depends on what else you’ve got going on on your back! Tattoos can play a huge role in how your body piercings translate.

With the comeback of low rise jeans, there’s likely going to be a comeback of lower back body decor that was so popular in the 2000’s scene! Twenty-two years ago, this style of tattoos and piercings weren’t as adored as they are today, purely because tats and piercings weren’t nearly as acceptable as a whole as they are today.

How Much Does It Cost

Back dimple piercings are technically dermal piercings, so the procedure works a little differently than sending a needle straight through the skin. There’s an intricate process in placing dermals, so these are roughly going to cost about $70 to $80 per piercing, without jewelry.

With something this detailed, don’t skimp on a cheap piercer.

It might be tempting to ask around for quotes and go with the cheapest option, but realistically that’s never the best choice.

If you can spare the extra few bucks to make sure you get the best choice in piercer, please do. Someone experienced will make this a better process and you will feel more confident with the outcome! This is true for every piercing, but with something as specialized and intricate at dermals, I really, truly push this mindset.

Keep in mind you’ll have to add on jewelry prices too! And while we know professionals are always trying to sell us a top dollar product, I like to go with their suggestions with specialty piercings.

How Much Does It Hurt

Again, since these piercings are dermals and the needle isn’t just going straight through in a quick motion, getting this piercing can be a little painful. Only in the moment though, so the pain won’t last!

That’s the good news. You don’t have to worry too much about the pain lingering, other than soreness. Sure you’ll be sore, but it’ll be so worth it for your outcome!

Dermals sit into the skin and are “set” under layers of your skin with an L shape stud, so you’re going to feel that and be pretty aware of it during the healing process.

How To Heal And Not Get Infected

As usual, never touch it before washing your hands. It might feel a little redundant or unnecessary but these are such sensitive wounds you’re trying to heal here!

They can’t close up to protect themselves, and it will take a while to do so, so it’s in a pretty vulnerable state. Do your skin a favor.

Follow your piercer’s advice for the next few days. It varies from professional to professional, but ultimately you should probably wear a bandaid on them for the first few days, to help with catching and snagging, as well as any random bleeding that may occur.

Instead of using a cotton swab like you use with other piercings, the best way to get this one clean is going to be with a larger cotton pad, gauze pad, or a paper towel. Soak it or an area of it with saline solution.

You can get saline from any store, your piercer, or you can make some! It’s a simple solution of salt and water.
Soak the pad on each piercing (gently) and clean away any crust that has formed since your last cleaning.

Be super gentle with these, I know that they can be hard to get to on your back. But do the best you can and ask your bestie for help if you need it.

What Does The Scar Look Like

If you already have back dimples, a scar for this piercing will be no sweat. Once you remove the dermals when it’s time to move on, all you have to do is wait for the holes to grow in to see what the scar damage will be.

In fleshy areas of our body, piercing scars never truly go away. They can fade over time, and fade to a point where we don’t really notice them anymore, but they’re usually still there. Scar tissue will always take over, and do its job… It’s part of how the body works!

We will likely still see scarring in the form of indentations on your skin, but if you really had the back dimples before, you’re really going to have them now!

So luckily this one you don’t have to worry about too much, because it’s only enhancing what’s already there naturally.
