Body piercing has been taken to another level. Even as many of us failed to wrap our heads around tongue piercing, the latest fad is that of ‘Engagement Piercing’. Yes, you heard it right! This trend is weird but is catching on. This is the latest way of saying yes to your partner. Engagement piercing on the ring finger is also known as “Dermal Piercing” and people are sharing their pictures on Instagram where they have ditched regular wedding or engagement rings.

Just like other piercings, this includes two pieces of metal. A metal or stone on top and another one under the skin with a sort of screw. This dermal piercing must be fascinating for many, but doctors and piercing industry insiders said it can lead to severe complications.

Here are the Instagram posts:

Some have shared their negative experience as well, stating that in the long run, it can turn out to be harmful.

I had a dermal piercing on my ring finger. I had it for a few years. I bumped it constantly. One day I went to the beach after school, and it started to swell on my way home. My finger was huge and purple. I went through 3 different antibiotics and nothing worked. So after the 3rd one didn’t work my doctor had me go straight to the surgeon. This was on a Friday, I had surgery on Monday. They used cosmetic stitches so I don’t really have a scar. But if I bump my finger I feel the same pain as when I had the piercing. #100factsin100days #girlswithtattoos #fingerpiercing #dermalpiercing #twitchaffiliate #blackink (FOLLOW ME ON TWITCH!

After this trend went viral, many have raised questions about its harmful effects. Though, this year many fashion trends like an avocado proposal, fishtail eyebrow have gained a lot of popularity.
