Zusammenfassung: | Objective: To know from a sample of secondary students between the 6th
and 12th grades in four schools in the city of Santiago de Cali from
different socio-economic levels, the characterization of their social
demographic variables and the factors that motivated them to use
piercings. Materials and methods: A 15-question survey was applied to
