- Piercing needles are far superior to piercing guns when it comes to tools to pierce the skin. Piercing guns aren't very sanitary, they don't allow the piercer to be as precise, and they can tear the skin, which can lead to issues with healing. Piercing guns should never be used to pierce cartilage, since the rather blunt studs they "shoot" can shatter tough-to-pierce cartilage.
- Corks or receiving tubes "catch" a needle as it passes through the skin and prevent it from piercing another part of the body (not necessary for every or even most piercings).
- Calipers and body piercing wheel gauges are used to measure body jewelry.
- Forceps help hold tissue while a piercing takes place.
- Hemostats may be used to place jewelry after piercing the skin.
- Nose ring pliers help a piercer bend a nose screw to fit a client perfectly. Some will also cut metal and can be used to make other types of custom nose piercing jewelry.
- Ring opening and closing pliers are used to open and close captive bead rings, which can be hard to do with heavier gauges unless you have these tools. A piercing ball grabber tool can also be helpful when working with captive bead rings.
- Body piercing tapers can be used to insert jewelry or stretch a pierced area so heavier-gauge jewelry can be inserted.
- Dermal punch tools are used to make a clean hole in which a dermal anchor can be inserted. These are used for microdermal piercings that are basically flush with the surrounding skin once the anchor is inserted and a top's screwed on. Hemostats are especially helpful in placing dermal tops.
