Oregon's Original Piercing Family since 1974. Three generations. Oregon's longest-licensed piercing studio.

Why Multnomah Body Piercing

We've been at 52 NE Division St in Gresham since 1974. My mother was one of Oregon's first licensed piercers. My family has been doing this for fifty years.

Here's what that means for you:

Experience you can't fake. 50 years means we've seen every anatomy, every complication, every question. We've handled situations other studios would turn away.
Sterile needles. Always. We never use piercing guns. Guns can't be sterilized between clients and cause blunt trauma. We use single-use, sterile, hollow needles on every piercing.
Implant-grade titanium. ASTM F136 titanium. No nickel. No reactions. Properly sized jewelry for initial piercings.
Walk in any time we're open. No appointment. No deposit. No wait list. Just come in.
Se Habla Español. We're right across from Gresham High School and have served this community for decades.

About Dermal Anchors

Dermal anchors are single-point surface piercings — they sit flat against the skin with just the jewelry visible on top. Popular placements include:

Collarbone — one of the most requested for summer
Lower back dimples — elegant and subtle
Face — cheekbone, temple, forehead
Hip — along the hip bone
Sternum/chest — between the collarbones
Nape of neck

We've been placing dermal anchors for years. Proper placement depth is critical for longevity — too shallow and they reject, too deep and they're impossible to remove. We get it right.

Dermal anchors require professional removal when you no longer want them. We handle that too.

Kids Ear Piercing — All Ages

We pierce ears for all ages, including babies. Parent or guardian must be present and provide consent. That's it — no forms to pre-fill, no appointment needed.

We use needles, not guns. This is especially important for children — needle piercings heal cleaner, hurt less (yes, really), and have a much lower risk of infection or rejection.
