The standard size for a healed tragus piercing is a 1.2 mm-thick bar (16G gauge) with a length of 6 mm or 8 mm. The exact choice between these lengths depends directly on your anatomy and cartilage thickness:

• 6 mm length: recommended for thin cartilage or fully healed piercings where a snug fit without slack is preferred.
• 8 mm length: recommended for thick cartilage or new piercings where extra space is needed to prevent tissue compression.

A precise fit prevents the back end from protruding toward the ear canal opening.

The yellow gold tragus models mounted on a flat-back labret can be worn with in-ear headphones without causing pressure pain. Unlike conventional butterfly backs or bulky balls, the smooth back plate rests directly against the inner side of the tragus, leaving the external auditory canal clear.

It is essential to choose a bar with a length suited to your anatomy. A piece that's a few millimeters too long will push the front outward when you insert an earbud, creating unnecessary tension on the surrounding cartilage tissue.

Our tragus jewelry is made exclusively from 9Kt gold, 14Kt gold, or 925 sterling silver plated with 18Kt yellow gold. Each metal offers specific properties:

• 9Kt and 14Kt solid gold: noble alloys with high water resistance and minimal chemical reactivity, recommended for continuous wear.
• 18Kt gold-plated 925 sterling silver: a hypoallergenic base with a superior, glossy finish, ideal for switching up styles in healed piercings.

All models come with a 3-year official warranty against manufacturing defects.

Investing in 14Kt gold eliminates the risk of contact dermatitis and prevents granulomas caused by corrosion from sweat or moisture. This noble metal releases no nickel or reactive particles, allowing the tragus epithelium to remain stable for years without darkening or peeling.

For sensitive piercings exposed to constant nighttime friction, the biocompatibility of solid gold makes the initial investment worthwhile by avoiding forced replacements or dermatology visits due to infection or cartilage flaking.

An internally threaded or push-fit system is technically superior to an externally threaded mechanism for any cartilage piercing. With externally threaded designs, the metal ridges pass directly through the fistula and may tear the epithelial tissue during insertion.

By contrast, a smooth barbell with an internal thread or push-fit end passes through the tragus without damaging friction, ensuring a secure fit that minimizes accidental loss without compromising the integrity of the cells in the piercing cavity.
