helix
​
- is a cartilage piercing
- differs in the angle of the piercing from the scapha: helix goes through the helix bow
- tends to bumps (hypertrophic scar tissue and keloids are also a risk, although rather rare)
- can change angle when pressure is applied
- usually leaves an inconspicuous scar
- first use: Labret with attachment of your choice
- needs a shorter bar after the swelling phase
- rings and necklaces can only be inserted after complete healing
- hair care, styling products, make-up and hair dyes cause problems for the piercing
​
Healing time: 9-12 months
