Isabella piercing is a female genital piercing. This extremely deep clitoral shaft piercing starts below the clitoris and just above the urethra, and then goes up through the clitoral shaft and exits at the top of the hood (where the entrance hole is for a Christina piercing).

This piercing was first documented in issue 17 of Piercing World Magazine. As Isabella piercing intersects the shaft of the clitoris, some piercers maintain it has the risk of nerve damage. Nerve damage can result from piercing a clitoris that is too small or from piercing through the shaft of the clitoris and through the dorsal nerve. Piercing through the shaft of the clitoris can also result in excessive bleeding and blood loss to the clitoris.

This is an extremely rare kind of piercing, like all other female genital piercings this is also highly anatomy-dependent. Healing time is 2-3 months. Additionally, since the safety of this piercing has been questioned by a number of experienced piercers, the Nefertiti piercing was invented.
