Try “pierced fish” they carry about a million different pieces. You will probably be ok to just dab some makeup on it. As long as its not a bright, shiny jewelry it should pass as a mole or beauty mark.
Who would be rude enough to ask about it?

The bad thing about the clear pieces is they are plastic.
Plastic is slightly porous and will allow bacteria into your freshly pierced cheek.

Why can’t you have them done in plastic? :S Everyone I know who’s got cheeks, had them done with PTF bars.
That’s pretty much what every single piercer around here does… And I don’t know anyone who’s had a problem with it either.
PTF bars will usually work out fine, as long as you clean them properly. And having a ptf-attatchment ball shouldn’t be a problem at all, as far as I can see.

If you’re willing to pay up a bit, you can always get customized jewllery. If you have bars with internally threaded bars, you can have plates too, instead of balls. Should be quite easy to cover up too.

tbh you would be better off finding a new place to work… or just put off getting them until you work at a place where you can have facial piercings…

i always thought that you are not meant to have plastic in till fully healed ..
but it doesnt stop people when stretching their ears from using plastic :rolleyes: so might be worth looking into

Well, there are plenty of clear retainers out there to hide the HEALED piercings with, that’s not really a problem. hiding them at work while they’re healing is the problem. dimple piercings taake a LOT longer to heal than most oral piercings and you need a lot of room on your initial jewelry for a pretty long time.for the first few months you will have antennas dangling out of your face. it is imperative to have the extra length until the entire channel of the piercing is healed. a client of mine who had his dimples for about 4 months got drunk and slept on his face and woke up with his cheeks swollen around the jewelry, we put longer jewelry back in right away and the last time I saw him the piercings were doing well. If your job will not allow you to wear your piercings visibly for several months of healing this might not be a good piercing for you, or maybe just not a good time to have them. if you try to “cheat” by switching jewelry too soon or taking your jewelry out while you’re at work you will regret it! best of luck.
