    Dont have them but they are supposed to be a nightmare to heal, also the marks are more visible I'd imagine cos there not under your lip there out there on their own if you get me

    Not sure of the studios down in cork, they're an anoying piercing by all accounts and are quite easy to catch on the bars when eating thus wrecking your teeth.

    Go to Tattoo Zoo, I've heard rumours that Maurice is back. If it's true he'd be the best person in Cork to talk to about them.

    Cheek piercings are one of the hardest piercings to heal, they're temperamental, never fully heal properly. A mate of mine has his 4 years and they still tend to ooze and puss quite a lot - especially when he's run down. So be prepared to spend a lot of time keeping them clean and doing regular soaks.
    Bear in mind you're also left with permanent dimples, so if you choose to go ahead with it, be sure to go to a reputable piercer where they'll get the placement perfect. Last thing you want is someone to make a mess of your face :)

    Good luck!

    Do you even know what you are talking about because no piercing can heal in one and half weeks not even the lobes.

    these piercings can look so super cute if they have healed correctly, i worked in a shop for ages and we had a regular customer that had big keloids on hers and it just made them look nasty!

    be 100% sure before to do it!!!

    Hey I would say the scarring would be more like the lower lip labret piercing as they should be pierced with the same size jewellry and any piercing over time will fade pretty well but on the cheek the dimple might be more obvious...My husband has them done and loves them, one does flare up every now and then but it clears up by itself, I would think they can be more troublesome in men with facial hair being a factor :D And any piercing can get funny if you are run down.... Its a lovely piercing but I think placement is very important I have seen some really dodgey looking ones from an aesthetic point of view so make sure you get a good piercer...
