Microdermal implants go under the skin as an alternative to surface bars. Read more about it on . Microdermals come in different gauges. 14g is the most popular for microdermals, but it's not guaranteed you were pierced with a 14g foot. Consult a professional body piercer before ordering your top to ensure it fits. The Surgical Steel Smartie Microdermal Top is 316LVM surgical steel, so it's hypoallergenic. It's hypoallergenic because its low-carbon vacuum melted. This process sucks out the nickel. Nickel is one of the most common causes of metal allergies. This process cannot remove all the nickel. As a result, a small number of people react to 316LVM surgical steel. If this is you, we recommend our implant-grade titanium body jewelry. This piece is available with PVD or blackline. PVD is more durable and therefore lasts longer than traditional plating. The rose gold and yellow gold are PVD. Blackline is a titanium carbide PVD coating. This stands for Physical Vapour Deposition. Titanium carbide deposits onto the metal as a vapour. As a result, the metal looks black. The top has internal threading. This means it screws into the foot. Microdermal piercings go pretty much anywhere on your body. Popular spots include the face, collarbones, neck, and fingers. Microdermals haven't been limited like normal piercings, so the sky is the limit to where you can put them. Just be careful not to snag them on things, wherever you get 'em.
