An earring post construction that includes an elongated earring post and a cup that is for the support of a decorative piece. The elongated earring post and cup are integrally formed in a single piece construction so as to eliminate the use of any attachment means between the elongated earring post and the cup; in combination with a securing stud that engages with the elongated earring post, and wherein there is provided an elongated passage in the elongated earring post so as to minimize the amount of precious metal used in constructing at least the elongated earring post.

An earring aligner system includes an earring aligner, which has a front arm and a back arm, as well as a hinge that rotationally connects a first end of the front arm to the back arm. A second front segment of the front arm includes an earring support with a post receiver void that is sized to detachably hold a post of an earring therein. A second back segment of the back arm includes at least three prongs that are spaced to support an earring back therebetween. The hinge is operable to change a hinge angle from a larger angle between the front arm and back arm during earring mounting on the earring aligner to a smaller angle during alignment of the earring post with the earring back after the earring post is inserted through a hole in an earlobe of a user.

A crushed piercing needles with installed-back-pin, which can pierce into human tissues easily and reduce pain and bacterial infection caused by secondary piercing. The crushed piercing needles with installed-back-pin includes a piercing needle body and a piercing needle tip, with the piercing needle tip disposed at an output end of the piercing needle body; further includes a pin needle, there is a crushed region arranged between the piercing needle body and the piercing needle tip, and the pin needle is bonded to an input end of the piercing needle body as a whole.

Apparatuses and systems for ornamental piercing of body parts are disclosed comprising a body piercing cartridge for use with a reusable body piercing instrument. The body piercing cartridge includes a feature for engaging a matching feature of the instrument coupled to the finger grip section of the of the instrument. The engaging feature of the jaw is disposed back from an end of the jaw such that the end of the jaw extends beyond a forward extension of the body piercing instrument to achieve an overhanging jaw. The overhanging jaw reduces the likelihood of contact by the body piercing instrument with the body which accordingly reduces the likelihood of infection. The overhanging jaw is particularly useful for making piercings without a clutch such as in a nostril.

Methods for apparatuses and systems for ornamental piercing of body parts are disclosed comprising a main housing having a thumb grip section along a rear surface, a post holder including separate portions held together slidably engaged within a post holder track within the main housing such that the separate portions support a post while held together within the post holder track and fall away to release the post after exiting the post holder track, and a jaw slidably engaged with the main housing with a jaw track. The jaw track is parallel to the post holder track and the jaw supports a backing platform for piercing with the post as the jaw and main housing are moved together along the jaw track. The jaw includes a finger grip section disposed below and opposite the backing platform and opposite the thumb grip section of the main housing.

A bioabsorbable tissue support is inserted into a tissue of a subject during, or after, puncture of the tissue. The bioabsorbable tissue support includes a material that is gradually absorbed into the punctured tissue in time, and disappears. The bioabsorbable tissue support may be inserted standing alone, or in association with a permanent or temporary non-bioabsorbable tissue support, may define the shape of the punctured hole, and/or may release useful or ornamental chemicals into the punctured tissue. The chemical may include an antibacterial material, an antifungal material, an antimicrobial material, topical anesthetic, a temporary or permanent dye material, and/or an antiproliferative agent. The non-bioabsorbable tissue support may include a self-expanding material that enlarges the size of the puncture in time. The bioabsorbable tissue support may have the form of a tube and/or a mesh of variable peripheral shapes, be elongated, and/or have attachable and detachable end plates and pointed tips.

An earring post construction that includes an elongated earring post and a cup that is for the support of a decorative piece. The elongated earring post and cup are integrally formed in a single piece construction so as to eliminate the use of any attachment means between the elongated earring post and the cup; in combination with a securing stud that engages with the elongated earring post, and wherein there is provided an elongated passage in the elongated earring post so as to minimize the amount of precious metal used in constructing at least the elongated earring post.

An earring structure, with a separate post and decoration head that are separable, and where the post fits into a recess in the earing, and is magnetically held.
