The labret piercing is one of the most popular lip piercings and has been equally popular with women and men since the 1990s.
The word labret originally comes from Latin and means lip.
The labret has a rich history and has been worn as body jewelry by various indigenous peoples.
A labret piercing is always placed below the lower lip. It doesn't matter whether it is in the center or on the side. There are no limits to your creativity.

| Jewelry hint | For labret piercings, a slightly longer jewelry is always used as the first insert, as it can swell slightly depending on the person. For a labret piercing, we definitely recommend using a labret as the initial jewelry, as your piercing will heal faster compared to a ring as the initial jewelry. Jewelry made of PTFE (Teflon) can also be chosen to protect the teeth. |
