A navel piercing is called a belly button piercing and is alternatively known as umbilical cord pairing. It is the kind of piercing that is located anywhere near the navel. It can be done in surface piercing style where it takes a bit more time to heal or just like a regular piercing which is done on the ear where it will heal quickly without much irritation. The healing process for navel piercing takes about 6 to 9 months or even more than that as long as you take sufficient care of it.

Unlike other surface piercing, the kind of piercing has a lower rejection rate but it is still a bit higher than other kinds, like the wear piercings. Well, it has been said that an actual navel piercing can occur only in the case if your navel is an outie. For people with innies, only the skin surrounding the navel is pierced at multiple locations. The most common kind of navel piercing is the one on top of the rim of the belly.

It is worn by many males and females throughout the world with some celebrities like musicians, Britney Spears, Janet Jackson, Beyonce, Miley Ray Cyrus, Avril Lavigne, Normani, and Bhad Bhabie. The men who wear navel piercings in the industry include Slash who is the main guitarist for Guns N Roses.
