Medusa Piercing is located in the centre of the top lip, in the area where most people have a ‘dip’ beneath the nose. The jewelry used is most commonly a Labret as used in the Madonna piercing.

It takes about 4-12 weeks to heal, quite faster as compared to other forms of piercing. As we discussed earlier, oral piercings tend to heal faster because of the friendly bacteria present in the mouth. Plus, the use of labret helps the piercing heal better rather than a Ball Closure Ring. Though Damage can also come from jewelry constantly rubbing against the gum lining and wearing it away. This often happens if larger jewelry s left unchanged, after the initial swelling reduces.
Like all in all oral piercings, eating would be problematic for a few days. However, you can manage with soft food for a weeks if you want it to heal faster.
