Medusa Piercing Krakow – central accent above the lip | Nemearis

The Medusa Piercing is a single piercing located just above the center of the upper lip, in the philtrum area. It's a delicate yet highly effective form of facial adornment. At Nemearis Piercing & Jewellery, we perform Medusa piercings precisely, perfectly fitting the contours of your face.

What does Medusa Piercing look like?

The piercing is placed vertically under the philtrum column, usually centered above the upper lip. The jewelry includes a barbell or labret with a decorative tip—a butterfly, ball, disc, or crystal.

Medusa vs Monroe and Madonna - what's the difference?

Despite their similarity, Medusa's philtrum is positioned above the center of the lip, while Monroe and Madonna's philtrum are positioned laterally above the lip—either on the left or right side. As a result, Medusa presents a more symmetrical, central facial accent.

Why choose Medusa?

It's a subtle decoration that attracts attention without being overly striking. Medusa pairs well with minimalist makeup and facial styling, and also works well as a focal point when paired with Angel Bites, Cyber Bites, or a Vertical Labret.

Medusa Piercing Jewelry

Labrets with decorative balls, discs, or crystals are most commonly used—preferably titanium or surgical steel. Our labret collection includes models perfectly suited to the Medusa—minimalist or more decorative.

Healing Medusa Piercing

The average healing time is 2–3 months. We recommend avoiding excessive pressure (e.g., while eating or applying makeup) and regular saline rinses. Our team will provide a detailed post-treatment care plan.
