Abstract
The invention relates to a monolithic piercing (1) designed to be inserted in a previously pierced hole in the skin of a user, the piercing comprising: •—a tip (110), configured to allow guiding and suitable presentation of an expansion bulb during its insertion into the hole in the skin; •—the expansion bulb, (120), having an ovoid profile and variable cross-section having a plurality of different perimeters, only one of which is maximum, the bulb (120) being configured to ensure a gradual and painless expansion of the skin during guiding of the piercing into the hole; •—a rod (200) configured to adapt to the tunnel hole of the skin and enabling support of the piercing; •—an end portion (300) consisting of an ornamental relief, which has a volume and/or a characteristic dimension that is sufficiently large to prevent the piercing from passing through the hole in the skin; and •—wherein the tip (110), the bulb (120) and the rod (200) cooperate in order to ensure a triple function of insertion, holding in place and removal of the piercing allowed by the guiding and expansion of the hole; •—wherein the perimeter PB of any cross-section of the bulb (120) is greater than the perimeter PP of any cross-section of the tip (110) and than the perimeter PT of any cross-section of the rod (200); and •—wherein the weight of the ornamental end portion (300) is less than or equal to the combined weight of the tip (110) and the bulb (120).

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
