Corset piercings used to be a very temporary surface piercing that was usually done for 1 or 2 day shows, events or special occasions. Today, however, newer more flexible materials with a lower risk of rejection are available to make corsets last longer than a day or two.

While corset piercings look pretty cool right after they are done, as time goes by and rejection steps in they start to look pretty bad, red and inflamed in some cases, that is why they are normally very temporary unless very special care is taken.

How temporary or permanent a piercing is depends on the depth of the piercing, materials used and everyone's individual body and resistance to the material in the piercing being rejected.

From Wikipedia , here is their definition: A corset pie

rcing is a series of surface piercings done to emulate the appearance of corset lacing that is used to tighten the corset. Two rows of piercings are performed and can be composed of as few as four piercings (two in each row) or as many as the length of the area being pi

erced (usually the back) and the vertical space between piercings will allow space for. Due to the difficulty and risks associated with permanently healing single surface piercings, most corset pier

cings are intended to be temporary in nature.
