A surface dermal piercing is a single-point piercing that sits flatly against the skin. The piercing has one entry point and no exit point. Instead of securing the jewelry with a backing behind the piercing a dermal anchor is inserted beneath the dermal layer of tissue. The top rests on top of the skin. Surface dermal piercings generally will last as long as a person takes good care of them.
