Scalpelling a piercing rather than piercing with a needle carries the opportunity to start off at a size larger than most needles can achieve. Scalpelling a piercing can also be an alternative to stretching. This gives precise control over which tissue is thinned out during the process. Scalpelling is also a way to relocate existing piercings.
