Should I Get a Surface Piercing by My Sideburn?

Today I noticed this girl had a unique, eye catching, but very cool looking piercing on her side burn (see below links, please) Has anyone here gotten this piercing? I'm really considering getting it, but in my research I came upon the term "migrating" which is something a surface piercing can do. Can anyone explain to me what this is and whether or not this piercing would be worth it?

I appreciate any information and advice. Thank you!

If I were to go ahead with this procedure I would get flat "anchors" not balls and would have a smaller distance between the two piercings

    ohmygod!

    i freaking LOVE that piercing:]

    im also considering getting it done.

    and i'd say the risk of migration is really low if you go to an expierenced piercer.

    and migrating is when your body rejects the piercing pretty much.

    what happens is it'll slowly work its way up to the surface of your skin and i guess pop out or something.

    its hard to explain, but they told me that could happen with my eyebrow piercing, and ive had it for two years now no problems:]

    if you get it done, just keep it clean and take care of it,

    and it should be fine.

    surface piercings are meant to not be perminent i think that bmezine website will tell you that somewhere if you look hard enough

    they arent perminent and the body will reject it and it will grow out and leave a scar

    i dont know how long your supposed to keep it in for youll have to find out

    i say don't get it done. one, it has the possibility of rejecting, which can leave a nasty scar. two, you will get tired of it. the end.
