'''Brace piercing''' is a method of [[Surface Piercing|surface piercing]] that's been briefly flirted with by a few piercers, but has not been experimented enough to say much about it. The theory is that brace piercing works by using a [[scar]] or a small bar-style [[Implants|implant]] as a brace. The piercing is made ''behind'' this, working on the assumption that the brace will hold the piercing in place and stop [[migration]].

While an interesting concept, it did not turn out to be particularly advantageous, in part because [[scar tissue]] is often weaker than normal [[skin]].
