Nose piercings come in two forms: nostril piercing and septum piercing. For those who can't bother clicking on septum, your septum is that flap of cartilage which separates your two nostrils.

There are a number of other piercings as well. A bridge piercing,a nasallang, and a septril are three that come to mind.

A bridge piercing is a horizontal piercing through the bridge of the nose (between the eyes). It passes through flesh (no cartilage), and must be kept very clean, because of i's location. Any infection in the bridge could be dangerous or possibly deadly, because of its close proximity to the cranial cavity and the brain.

A nasallang is a piercing that passes through both nostrils as well as the septum. (i.e.: one large piercing all the way through the nose.) Viking Navarro has a large guage nasallang piercing, as well as a stretched septum which looks incredible.

A septril piercing is only possible on people with a large septum piercing. This piercing actually passes vertically from the septum piercing through the bottom of the nose. A very odd and relatively new piercing.
