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.
Vertical Labret – Age Policy (Liverpool, England)
In England, there is no specific national law setting a minimum age for Vertical Labret Lip piercings. However, at our Liverpool studio, we follow strict safety and consent guidelines to protect our clients and maintain professional standards.
We offer Vertical Labret Lip piercings from age 16 with valid photo ID (passport, driving licence, or citizen card) to verify 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 Vertical Labret Lip piercings are carried out by skilled professionals using sterile, single-use needles and implant-grade, hypoallergenic jewellery to ensure maximum safety and comfort. We also provide detailed aftercare instructions and ongoing support to help your piercing heal cleanly and beautifully.
How Painful is a Vertical Labret Lip Piercing?
Pain levels for a Vertical Labret Lip piercing are generally mild to moderate and vary from person to person. Most clients describe it as a quick, sharp pinch through the centre of the lower lip, followed by brief throbbing or tenderness. Because this piercing passes vertically through the lip, it may feel slightly more sensitive than earlobe or surface piercings, but the discomfort is short-lived and manageable.
After the procedure, it’s normal to experience light swelling, redness, or tenderness around the piercing for a few days. Healing typically takes around 6–8 weeks, though sensitivity can linger if the area is pressed or irritated during this period.
Our professional piercers use sterile, single-use needles and high-quality implant-grade jewellery to make the process as safe and comfortable as possible. By following proper aftercare and avoiding unnecessary pressure or touching, your Vertical Labret Lip piercing should heal cleanly and look stunning with minimal discomfort.
Pain Reduction for Piercings
Everyone experiences pain differently, and while most Vertical Labret Lip 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 Vertical Labret Lip piercings experience is as smooth, safe, and stress-free as possible.

Professional Vertical Labret Lip Piercing Process

We’ll also review your medical history and answer any questions or 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 Vertical Labret Lip piercing procedure follows the strictest hygiene and safety standards set by Liverpool City Council.

We also guide you through breathing techniques and positioning to maximize comfort throughout the process.
