A bridge piercing is a body piercing through the bridge of the nose(where glasses sit on your face). Depending on the amount of "loose" skin in the area being pierced this piercing will heal easily, or cases where less skin is present, more like a surface piercing.
Bridge piercings are most commonly pierced with straight barbells, although curved barbells and surface bars are also possible initial jewelry. Once the piercing is healed, it is possible to wear a captive bead ring in it, although depending on the placement of the piercing, a D-ring stlye ring may be necessary to prevent migration caused by the pressure exerted by the shape of a ring.
Like many other facial piercings, there are urban legends about infections in bridge piercings spreading to the brain, via the sinuses. Bridge piercings are a minor piercing and carry very few risks or complications.
