At Zetixo, we provide a comprehensive range of body modification services performed by certified specialists using sterile equipment and premium materials. Each procedure follows strict health and safety protocols established by the Association of Professional Piercers.
The most popular choice for first-time clients. We use single-use needles and titanium studs suitable for sensitive skin. The procedure takes approximately 10 minutes per ear. Aftercare instructions provided include saline solution application twice daily for six weeks. Suitable for ages 8 and above with parental consent for minors under 16.
Upper cartilage modification positioned on the outer rim of the ear. We recommend implant-grade titanium or 14k gold jewellery to minimize irritation during the healing period. The cartilage requires 3-6 months for complete recovery. Our specialists assess ear anatomy to determine optimal placement. Includes follow-up consultation after two weeks.
Small cartilage section located at the ear canal entrance. This placement requires precise technique due to limited space and cartilage thickness. We use 16-gauge needles and flat-back labret studs to prevent snagging. Healing typically takes 3-4 months. Not recommended for individuals who regularly use earbuds or hearing aids during the initial healing phase.
Inner cartilage fold modification requiring advanced technique and anatomical knowledge. The curved placement demands specialized jewellery such as captive bead rings or curved barbells. Healing period extends to 4-6 months due to cartilage density. Some clients report migraine relief, though medical evidence remains inconclusive. Consultation required to assess ear structure suitability before booking.
Large central cartilage area allowing for versatile jewellery options including studs, hoops, and orbital rings. The substantial cartilage thickness requires 18-gauge needles and extended healing time of 6-9 months. Inner conch placement sits deeper within the ear bowl, while outer conch positions closer to the edge. Premium jewellery selection available in our studio.
Two cartilage perforations connected by a single straight barbell, typically spanning from upper helix to forward helix. This complex procedure requires specific ear anatomy and takes 30 minutes to complete. Custom-measured barbells ensure proper fit and reduce healing complications. Recovery period extends to 6-12 months. Detailed aftercare protocol provided including cleaning schedule and sleeping position recommendations.
Classic facial modification positioned on either side of the nose. We use 18-gauge needles and offer nose screws, L-shaped studs, or seamless rings. The cartilage and tissue combination heals within 2-4 months. Placement considers nostril shape and facial symmetry. Initial jewellery features flat backing to prevent interior irritation. Suitable for most clients aged 16 and above.
Cartilage divider between nostrils, placed through the soft tissue area called the columella. Proper placement ensures comfort and allows jewellery to sit correctly. We use circular barbells or captive rings in 16 or 14 gauge. Healing takes 6-8 weeks, faster than cartilage due to tissue type. Can be flipped up for discretion during work or formal occasions.
Various placement options including labret (centre lower lip), Monroe (upper left), Madonna (upper right), or side lip positions. We use internally threaded labret studs with flat disc backing to protect teeth and gums. Healing period ranges 6-8 weeks. Initial jewellery features extended length to accommodate swelling during first two weeks. Oral hygiene protocol essential for proper recovery.
Surface modification positioned vertically or horizontally along the eyebrow ridge. We use curved barbells to match natural tissue contour and reduce rejection risk. Placement avoids facial nerves and considers eyebrow shape. Healing takes 6-8 weeks with proper care. Regular downsize appointments recommended after initial swelling subsides. Suitable for clients with sufficient tissue depth in the eyebrow area.
Horizontal surface placement across the nose bridge between the eyes. This advanced procedure requires specific facial anatomy and tissue depth assessment. We use straight barbells in 14 or 12 gauge with low-profile ends. Healing extends to 8-12 weeks. Regular monitoring necessary to detect early signs of migration or rejection. Consultation mandatory to evaluate suitability before scheduling.
Central tongue placement positioned between muscle sections to avoid blood vessels and nerves. We use 14-gauge straight barbells with extended length for initial swelling. Healing occurs rapidly within 4-6 weeks due to mouth's natural healing properties. Strict oral hygiene required including alcohol-free mouthwash after meals. Dietary restrictions apply during first week. Downsize appointment scheduled after swelling reduces.
Popular body modification positioned through the upper rim of the belly button. Requires sufficient tissue fold for proper placement and healing. We use curved barbells in 14 gauge with titanium or surgical steel composition. Healing takes 6-9 months, longer than many expect. Clothing friction and movement affect recovery time. Not suitable for individuals with outie belly buttons or insufficient tissue depth.
Horizontal or vertical placement through the nipple base, not the areola. We use straight barbells in 14 or 12 gauge depending on anatomy. Healing period extends 6-12 months requiring consistent aftercare. Both nipples can be done in one session or separately. Jewellery must accommodate natural nipple changes. Consultation discusses anatomy assessment, jewellery options, and detailed healing expectations.
Customizable placement on flat body areas including chest, neck, wrist, or hip. We use surface bars or curved barbells designed specifically for surface work. Placement requires adequate tissue depth and proper angle to reduce rejection risk. Healing takes 3-6 months with careful monitoring. Higher maintenance than traditional piercings. Consultation essential to assess chosen location viability and discuss realistic expectations.
Single-point modification with internal anchor beneath skin surface. Popular locations include cheekbones, chest, back, and fingers. Installation uses dermal punch or needle method depending on location. We use titanium anchors with interchangeable tops. Healing takes 1-3 months for surface, longer for complete anchor integration. Removal requires professional extraction. Consultation covers placement options, lifestyle considerations, and long-term maintenance requirements.
Intimate modifications for various anatomies including Prince Albert, frenum, Christina, or hood placements. All procedures performed in private consultation rooms with strict confidentiality. We use implant-grade materials and specialized jewellery for each placement type. Healing varies 4-12 weeks depending on specific location. Detailed aftercare instructions address hygiene, sexual activity restrictions, and clothing considerations during recovery period.
Personalized modification plans including multiple piercings, unique placements, or complex arrangements. Our experienced team works with you to design a cohesive aesthetic matching your vision. Projects may span multiple sessions for optimal healing between procedures. Includes detailed consultation, placement mapping, jewellery selection, and comprehensive aftercare plan. Pricing determined during consultation based on complexity, number of piercings, and jewellery choices.
Each piece represents our commitment to precision and artistry. We work with surgical-grade materials and follow strict hygiene protocols to ensure safe, beautiful results that last.
A carefully planned arrangement of three helix piercings adorned with titanium studs featuring genuine opal stones. The placement creates a balanced, elegant look that complements the natural ear shape while maintaining comfortable spacing for proper healing.
Precise septum piercing fitted with a rose gold clicker featuring delicate cubic zirconia detailing. Positioned through the sweet spot for minimal discomfort and maximum aesthetic impact. The hinged design allows for easy removal when needed.
Classic navel piercing using implant-grade titanium curved barbell with a teardrop-cut aquamarine stone. The anatomical placement ensures proper alignment with body movement, while the high-quality materials support optimal healing within 6-9 months.
Complementary daith and tragus piercings featuring matching white gold jewelry with small diamond accents. The daith uses a seamless ring while the tragus sports a flat-back labret stud, creating visual harmony without overwhelming the ear's natural contours.
Single nostril piercing with threadless titanium post and a 2mm prong-set sapphire top. The threadless system provides secure retention while allowing easy jewelry changes. Positioned to follow the natural curve of the nostril for a flattering, subtle appearance.
Custom-angled industrial piercing connecting helix and forward helix with a single surgical steel barbell. Carefully measured to match the client's unique ear anatomy, ensuring the bar sits comfortably without pressure points. Finished with decorative spike ends for an edgy aesthetic.
Real experiences from our clients across London and beyond
I had my helix done at Zetixo and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. The studio was spotless, the equipment was clearly sterilised in front of me, and the piercer explained every step. Healing has been smooth with no complications. I appreciated the detailed aftercare instructions and the follow-up message checking how I was doing.
Quick, professional, and exactly what I wanted. The price was fair for the quality of jewellery used.
Good service overall. The piercing itself was done well and healed without issues. My only minor complaint is that I had to wait about 20 minutes past my appointment time, but the staff apologised and the actual procedure was worth the wait. Would recommend booking early in the day to avoid delays.
I was nervous about getting my first body modification, but the team at Zetixo made me feel completely at ease. They answered all my questions without rushing me, showed me the sterilisation process, and let me choose from a good selection of titanium jewellery. The piercer's hands were steady and the whole thing was over in seconds. Three weeks later and it's healing perfectly. I'll definitely be back for my next one.
The piercing was done professionally and the studio met hygiene standards. However, I found the jewellery options somewhat limited compared to other studios I've visited. The price was reasonable but not the cheapest in London. Staff were polite but not particularly warm. It did the job, and I have no complaints about the technical side, just felt it could have been a more personal experience.
Brilliant experience from start to finish. The piercer knew exactly what they were doing and the result is perfect. Clean studio, friendly staff, reasonable prices. Can't fault it.
I travelled from Edinburgh specifically for this studio based on recommendations. The work was excellent and I'm happy with my new septum piercing. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is that the aftercare spray they recommended was quite expensive, and I later found the same product cheaper online. Apart from that, no complaints about the actual service.
I had a problematic industrial bar from another studio that kept getting infected. The team at Zetixo assessed it, explained that the angle was wrong, and offered to redo it properly. They removed the old jewellery, let it heal for three months, then repierced it with correct placement. Six months on and it's completely healed with no issues. They really know their anatomy and took the time to get it right. Worth every penny.
Decent studio with proper equipment and hygiene protocols. The piercing was done correctly and has healed well. My main issue was communication - I emailed twice before my appointment with questions and didn't receive responses. When I arrived, everything was fine, but better email communication would have eased my pre-appointment anxiety. The work itself was good, just improve the customer service side.
Absolutely top-notch. Clean, professional, and the piercer clearly had years of experience. My tongue piercing healed in record time thanks to their advice.
Really pleased with my rook piercing. The studio was immaculate and the piercer was gentle and precise. I'm taking off one star because the initial jewellery was quite basic and I had to return to upgrade to something I actually liked, which cost extra. Would have been nice to have better options included in the original price. But the technical work was excellent and it's healing beautifully.
I've had multiple piercings done over the years at various studios, and Zetixo stands out for their attention to detail. They use single-use needles, autoclave all reusable equipment, and the piercer marked the placement multiple times to ensure I was happy before proceeding. The studio follows proper protocols and you can tell they take health and safety seriously. My tragus piercing was placed perfectly and the swelling was minimal. I've recommended them to three friends already, all of whom have had equally positive experiences.
