TECHNIQUE

There are different methods to split the tongue. The most common is cutting with a scalpel. Afterward, the two wounds are closed either with heat or with a needle and thread to minimize regrowth and to achieve a “rounder” shape of the two halves of the tongue. Some modifiers also perform the procedure using scissors, which, however, has a rather bad reputation.

We exclusively use the scalpel method to perform tongue splitting.

Anyone who wants to split their tongue must consider the following points:

The possible depth of the cut depends on the customer’s wishes but is always dependent on the anatomy of the tongue.

RISKS

Since a large wound area is exposed, there is of course a certain risk of infection. However, with proper aftercare, this risk is minimal. Speech is naturally affected during the healing phase but returns to normal afterward. The sense of taste remains intact and may, in some cases, even be perceived as enhanced.

HEALING

The healing process is not exactly painless. During the first few days, the pain is extreme even with painkillers and ice water, but it gradually improves. After about 10 days, the tongue can be used normally again, but full healing can take 1–2 months. During the first months, the two halves of the tongue must be kept apart to prevent them from growing back together. Otherwise, aftercare is limited to occasional rinsing with a disinfectant solution.

BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT

Before the appointment, prepare ice cubes made from chamomile tea so the tongue can be cooled after the procedure.
On the day of the procedure, no caffeine-containing foods should be consumed.
No blood-thinning medication should be taken.
It is best to arrive well-rested and having eaten and drunk sufficiently beforehand.
If you are a smoker, please smoke no later than 2 hours before the procedure. After that, you should refrain from nicotine for 10 days.
A tongue splitting without a tongue piercing has no specific disadvantages. The risk of partial regrowth of the tongue halves also exists when a piercing is present.
