Meet Aaron, Professional Body Piercer
Hi, I’m Aaron from Liverpool. I’m a tattoo artist and piercer with several years of experience in the industry, and I’m still as passionate about learning and developing my craft as I was on day one. Tattooing and piercing allow me to combine creativity with precision, and I love working with clients to create pieces that hold personal meaning and leave a lasting impression.
Outside of the studio, I spend much of my time exploring other creative outlets. I enjoy photography, drawing, and painting, which often inspire my tattoo designs. In the evenings, you’ll usually find me playing PlayStation or switching between guitar and piano, as music has always been another form of self-expression for me. When I want to recharge, I hit the road on my motorbike, riding across the country and finding inspiration in new places and experiences.
Monroe Piercing – Age Policy (Liverpool, England)
In England, there is no specific national law setting a minimum age for Monroe piercings. However, at our Liverpool studio, we follow strict safety and consent guidelines to ensure client wellbeing and professional standards.
We offer Monroe piercings from age 16 with valid photo ID (passport, driving licence, or citizen card) to confirm age. Anyone under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian present to provide written consent and remain in the studio during the procedure. For younger clients, we may decline the piercing if we feel the anatomy isn’t suitable for safe placement.
All Monroe piercings are carried out by skilled professionals using sterile, single-use needles and implant-grade, hypoallergenic jewellery for maximum safety and comfort. After the procedure, we provide full aftercare instructions and ongoing support to help your new piercing heal smoothly.
How Painful is a Monroe Piercing?
Pain levels for a Monroe piercing are usually mild to moderate and vary from person to person. Most clients describe it as a quick, sharp pinch with slight pressure, followed by minor throbbing or tenderness. Since the Monroe piercing goes through the upper lip on one side, it may feel a little more sensitive than ear piercings, but the discomfort is very brief.
After the procedure, it’s normal to experience light swelling, redness, or tenderness for a few days. Healing generally takes around 6–10 weeks, though sensitivity can persist if you press on the area or irritate the piercing during this time.
Our professional piercers use sterile, single-use needles and high-quality implant-grade jewellery to make the process as smooth and comfortable as possible. With proper aftercare and by avoiding unnecessary touching or pressure, your Monroe piercing should heal cleanly and look stunning with minimal discomfort.
Pain Reduction for Piercings
Everyone experiences pain differently, and while most Monroe piercings involve only a quick, sharp sensation, we understand that some clients want ways to make the process more comfortable. At our Liverpool studio, we do not provide or recommend numbing creams as part of our service, since they can sometimes affect skin texture, blood flow, and healing. They aren’t usually necessary for a safe, smooth piercing.
If you choose to use a numbing cream, it’s at your own risk. Popular options people use include Emla, TKTX Numbing Cream, and No Tears Numbing Cream. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions, perform a patch test first, and inform your piercer before your appointment.
Other effective ways to minimize discomfort include:
Eating a nutritious meal beforehand to keep your blood sugar stable.
Staying hydrated and avoiding alcohol or caffeine prior to your appointment.
Taking slow, deep breaths during the piercing to help you relax.
Remembering that the procedure is very quick — often just a few seconds.
Our experienced piercers work efficiently and gently, using sterile, high-quality equipment to ensure your Medusa piercing experience is as smooth, safe, and stress-free as possible.
Monroe piercing Healing / Aftercare
The Monroe piercing is a timeless favourite among Liverpool locals, inspired by Marilyn Monroe’s iconic beauty mark. Positioned just above the upper lip on the left-hand side, this piercing adds a touch of glamour and individuality to any look. Whether you’re strolling through Liverpool ONE or heading out for cocktails in the Baltic Triangle, the Monroe piercing is a subtle yet striking way to showcase your style.
At Liverpool Tattoos, we’ve carried out Monroe piercings for clients all across Merseyside, from Sefton to Toxteth, each looking to capture that classic aesthetic with a modern edge. Many clients ask about the level of pain or how long healing takes, which is why we use only sterile, medical-grade tools and provide full aftercare support to make the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Professional Monroe Piercing Process
Every Monroe piercing appointment at our Liverpool studio starts with a friendly, in-depth consultation. During this time, we look at your facial anatomy and discuss your style goals to make sure the piercing is placed in just the right spot above your upper lip, capturing that classic Monroe beauty mark effect. Placement is key for both aesthetics and smooth healing, so we’ll also show you jewellery options and carefully mark the position for your approval before beginning.
We’ll go over your medical history and address any concerns you may have. Our team keeps detailed client records to ensure your piercing is tailored to your individual needs, making the experience safe, professional, and personal.
Safe & Professional Piercing Procedure
Our Monroe piercing procedure meets the strict hygiene and safety standards required by Liverpool City Council. We use sterile, single-use needles opened in front of you, and we never use piercing guns, as they can cause unnecessary damage. The piercing itself takes only seconds, and many clients are surprised by how quick and manageable the process feels. We guide you through breathing techniques and positioning to keep you comfortable throughout.
High-Quality Jewellery
All Monroe piercings at our Liverpool studio are fitted with implant-grade titanium or surgical steel jewellery. These premium, hypoallergenic materials are far safer than cheaper alternatives, helping reduce irritation and encouraging healthy healing from the very beginning.
Trusted in the Liverpool Community
As long-standing members of Liverpool’s body modification community, we’ve worked with clients from across the city and beyond — from students in the Knowledge Quarter to residents in areas like Allerton, Sefton Park, and Childwall. Our reputation has been built on trust, care, and consistency, with local health inspectors recognising our studio for its high standards of cleanliness and professionalism.

A Monroe piercing is a stylish lip piercing placed just above the upper lip on the left side, resembling the famous beauty mark worn by Marilyn Monroe. It’s done with a small stud and gives a bold yet elegant look.
Most clients describe the pain as quick and tolerable, similar to a sharp pinch. Discomfort usually fades shortly after the piercing is complete.
Healing usually takes 6–12 weeks with proper aftercare, though it can vary depending on your body and lifestyle.
We typically start with a flat-back labret stud made of implant-grade titanium or surgical steel, which helps reduce irritation during healing.
It’s best to avoid makeup around the piercing until it’s fully healed to prevent irritation or infection.
In most cases, it leaves a small, barely noticeable mark once healed. Scar visibility depends on how long you’ve worn the piercing and your skin type.
Other Types of Piercings in Liverpool
