Brace piercing is a method of 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 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.
