Overview
These body piercing forceps from Ametrine Surgical are purpose-built tools designed to hold small areas of skin or tissue securely and precisely during piercing work. Built in a long tweezer-style format, they give piercers the control and stability needed to position a site accurately before the needle passes through. Whether you are working on ears, nose, tongue, or other body areas, having a reliable clamp in hand makes the process cleaner and more consistent.
The range covers two core material types — bright pink plastic and polished silver metal — so you can choose based on your studio's workflow. Plastic versions are well suited to single-use or disposable setups, while the metal versions offer a more traditional professional tool feel with a polished finish and, on some variants, striking rainbow or blue colored finishes.
Design and Build Quality
Every forceps in this range features textured or ridged grip panels along the handle arms, giving you a firm, non-slip hold even when working quickly. The shaped gripping ends come in two distinct styles: oval open tips for general clamping and triangular open tips suited to specific piercing sites such as the tongue. On the oval-tip metal versions, serrated inner edges add extra grip on tissue, preventing slippage during the procedure.
Several designs across both the plastic and metal versions include a sliding lock on the handle. This ratchet-style mechanism lets you set the clamp at the correct tension and hold it there hands-free, freeing you to focus on needle placement. It is a practical detail that experienced piercers will appreciate and beginners will find reassuring.
Practical Use in the Studio
Ametrine Surgical packs each forceps individually in a clear sleeve, keeping tools clean and ready to use straight from the packaging. This makes them easy to store, dispense, and present to clients as part of a hygienic setup — an important consideration for any professional piercing environment.
The long tweezer-style arms give you reach and leverage without crowding the work area, and the shaped tips are designed to hold small, precise sections of skin without causing unnecessary discomfort. Whether you stock the pink plastic versions for disposable use or keep the polished metal clamps as part of your permanent toolkit, these forceps are a straightforward, dependable addition to any piercing station.
