The chance of success is greatest if the piercing is done through the anterior part of the sack, since this is the place less likely to provoke rejection of the jewel. Nowadays, it's customary to mount two rings, one at each side of the middle.

Doing it too swiftly, carries with it quite a lot of discomfort and a much prolonged time of healing.
