Anti-tragus piercing

Diagram: Anti-tragus piercing The anti-tragus is the bump of cartilage opposite the tragus, right above the lobe. The zone is small, so the jewellery has to be short: anything that protrudes catches on earphones and hair.

Jewellery

The most comfortable option is a micro curved barbell: the bent bar follows the shape of the bump. The second option is a small hinged ring. Long straight bars are not taken here.

Next to the lobe

The anti-tragus is often done together with a lobe piercing — they are side by side and read well together. But they heal differently: the lobe in a month and a half, the anti-tragus over months, because it is cartilage.

Healing

The guide is 6–12 months. The bump is thin, so the piercing is sensitive to pressure: in-ear earphones are better put aside for the healing period.

Size and material

Material	Titanium — 15 models. Contains no nickel, so it causes no reaction even in a fresh piercing. Lighter than steel — less load on the tissue. The material of first choice. 316L steel — 12 models. Cheaper, corrosion-resistant, suitable for a healed piercing. For the first jewellery titanium is the better choice.
Thickness	1.2 mm — 19 models, 1 mm — 5 models, 0.8 mm — 3 models, 1.6 mm — 1 model. The thickness must match the one the piercing was made with.
Bar length	8 mm — 20 models, 10 mm — 18 models, 6 mm — 16 models, 12 mm — 8 models. A longer bar is needed while the swelling lasts, a shorter one — for a healed piercing.
Ring diameter	8 mm — 25 models, 10 mm — 21 models, 12 mm — 14 models, 6 mm — 9 models. A smaller diameter sits tighter, a bigger one — looser and more visible.
Thread	Threadless — 15 models, External — 10 models, Internal — 1 model. An internal thread is hidden inside the bar — it does not scratch the channel when changing.
Insert	None — 11 models, Cubic zirconia — 4 models, Synthetic opal — 2 models.
