Summer in Frankfort, IL, means pool parties, crop tops, and showing off your personal style—and few accessories make a statement like a well-done belly button piercing. Whether you’re looking to highlight your midriff at Old Plank Trail concerts or just want to rock a bikini at Prairie Park, a navel piercing adds a bold, stylish edge. But while it’s trendy, it’s also a medical procedure, and safety should be your top priority.

At Skin and Body Bar in Frankfort, we offer professional belly button piercings in a clean, licensed environment where safety, hygiene, and results come first.

Why Belly Button Piercings Are So Popular

Belly button piercings are one of the most requested body piercings, especially in the summer months. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, navel piercings consistently rank among the top three body piercings in the U.S., particularly among women aged 18 to 35. Their popularity comes from their versatility: they’re easy to conceal when needed but can be a standout feature when styled with the right outfit.

Why Professional Piercing Matters

Although some people get navel piercings at tattoo parlors or mall kiosks, there are real risks involved if the procedure isn’t done properly. Because the belly button area can trap sweat and bacteria—especially in the summer heat—there’s a higher risk of infection or rejection if the piercing isn’t sterile, placed correctly, or properly cared for.

At Skin and Body Bar, all piercings are performed by trained medical professionals using sterile equipment in a controlled, hygienic setting. This minimizes your risk of complications and ensures a faster, smoother healing process.

What You Should Know Before Getting Pierced

If you are considering a belly button or other piercing, there are some things you should know:

  • Healing Time: Belly button piercings take about 6–12 months to fully heal. During this time, it’s important to keep the area clean and avoid swimming in lakes, pools, or hot tubs until your piercer gives the go-ahead.
  • Jewelry Materials Matter: We use only hypoallergenic jewelry to reduce allergic reactions and promote healing.
  • Infection Risk: According to the American Academy of Dermatology, 20–30% of body piercings may develop minor infections without proper aftercare. That’s why professional aftercare instructions and follow-ups are part of every piercing at our Frankfort clinic.
