Micro Dermal Anchor Jewelry Before Placement

Dermal anchor jewelry before placement

Here's what the jewelry looks like before it's placed in the skin. The flat part with the holes in it is the anchor that actually goes under the skin. The post that sticks out is what the screw head or gem attaches to.

Once the skin has healed and the anchor is firmly in place, the screw heads or gems can be replaced to create a whole new look.
