A '''bridge piercing''' passes horizontally through the fleshy part between the eyes above or at nose level (a [[Vertical bridge piercing|vertical bridge piercing]] is a surface piercing and technically quite different). The piercing is best done with a straight, curved (this will sit crookedly unless it's a flush fit), or staple barbell, unless it's being done shallower to allow the wearing of a smaller ring.
'''FAQ''' is an acronym for "'''F'''requently '''A'''sked '''Q'''uestions". [[BME]] has produced several FAQ's covering [[Body modification|body modification]] topics, which can be found, along with other body modification FAQ's, [http://www.bmezine.com/faq.html here].


When switching to a ring, be sure it's ''well'' healed and it's a [[D-ring]] or at least allows comfortable moving. Otherwise it may start [[Migration (body modification)|migrating]] or scarring, particularly those done closer to the bone (there's nowhere for the ring to move but forward). They are usually done in 14 or 12 gauge.

'''Special consideration:''' If you do not have somewhat loose skin here, you stand to have extended healing, migration and consequent scarring. Worse, it may heal crooked with it being too deep or shallow on one or both sides. Choose an experienced piercer for this one. Placement can be ''very'' difficult; depending on the face (every face is a collection of misalignments); the "correct" markings may end up ''pointing out'' misalignment rather than better averaging it.
