Alysa Liu has a frenulum “smiley” piercing , which is a small ring or barbell pierced through the thin tissue that connects the inside of the upper lip to the gums, so it only really shows when she smiles.

Quick Scoop

  • It’s not teeth gems or braces; the shiny silver you see on her front teeth is the jewelry from her smiley piercing sitting between her upper gums and lip.
  • Technically, it’s called a frenulum piercing , but fans and media keep referring to it as a “smiley” piercing because it appears when she smiles.
  • She has said she actually pierced it herself a little over two years ago, using proper piercing needles and having her sister hold up her lip while she did it in the mirror.
