Cardi B Embraces New Piercings After Welcoming Fourth Child
Cardi B, the Grammy-winning rapper, has made a striking return to body art, one month after the birth of her fourth child. On October 9, 2025, she visited a piercing studio to get a series of fresh dermal implants on her back and neck. This marks her latest bold choice in body jewelry, following her renowned $13,000 diamond butt crack piercing and a unique gold piece made from her umbilical cord.
The rapper, aged 33, welcomed her new son with NFL player Stefon Diggs. New York-based piercer Robbie, known on Instagram as @nyc.piercing, shared a behind-the-scenes video of Cardi receiving her new body decorations. Dermal implants require an anchor under the skin and are capped with jewelry-like tops. The Association for Professional Piercers recommends a wait of three months post-childbirth before getting new piercings, emphasizing safety after recent delivery.
"Loving the vibe!" Robbie posted, acknowledging the excitement surrounding Cardi’s new additions.

Reflecting on her extensive collection of piercings, Cardi expressed her resilience, noting, "No pain, no gain," is well-suited for anyone diving into body art. In a previous social media post earlier this year, she revealed her diamond butt crack piercing, stating it had cost her a hefty sum, although she dismissed any major discomfort due to prior surgical enhancements.
According to Cardi, her previous cosmetic surgeries had numbed parts of her body, making the recent piercings relatively painless. "I ain’t feel s—. It was the easiest piercing ever," she remarked, highlighting the unique advantages her past had conferred.

In her recent transformations, Cardi’s focus on self-expression continues alongside her family life. She has been cherishing moments with her newborn, sharing heartfelt images on social media. While the baby’s name remains undisclosed, Cardi referred to him lovingly as "My cuddle buddy 🧸🩶 I love him soooo much."
As for Diggs, the New England Patriots player, he’s likely preparing for fatherhood. Ahead of their child’s birth on November 4, 2025, he stated, "I can’t wait to make him do push-ups and sit-ups and run around," underscoring his enthusiasm for parenthood.
