On request, expose your belly button and the piercing artist will size up your navel with a felt tip marker. A surgical-type clamp will be attached to the upper region of your navel to stabilize the tissue in preparation for the puncture.

Out of the autoclave comes a very long, very sharp hollow needle of sorts, which will be used to pierce the skin for your new piercing. Your jewelry is placed on the end of the spear and guided through your new piercing. Remember to breathe throughout the procedure for maximum calm and comfort.
