Dermal anchors are not for everyone, unlike body piercing these are implants that are intended to stay in the body. The science of dermal anchoring is still very crude and not very refined, they are prone to infection, rejection and tearing out. In the event you ever with to have them taken out you must see a doctor to have them surgically removed. They can not legally be removed by a body piercer, that would be considered a surgicalprocedure and practicing medicine without a license. Dermal anchors and the installation of the anchors and the use of biopsy punches is illegal in some US states. So check with you local body piercing studio and health inspection unit in regards to the legality for your area. Be aware that some piercing studios will do dermal anchoring when they really don't know what they are doing so be sure you find a studio that has a good reputation for there work. Remember this is not body piercing but body modification and should never be confused with body piercing, this is a totally different ball or wax, you pay your money and take your chances.

What piercings has less risks?

All piercings have risks, so there is no "real answer" for this question.With that said, I would say piercings that are at a smaller risk for infections could be the ears. I've had my nose done, and it was infected badly, also my belly button done which was irriated a lot but healed fine.I've heard a lot of people gettijg belly button infections though. Either way, it depends how your body heals, if I got an infection, you might not.I do believe a lot of face piercings are prone to infections b.c you touch them a lot.etc..so my guess is the ears b.c you don't play with them too much and more germs aren't exposed to them. Anyway, if you keep a piercing clean, and your body accepts it, any percing can be okay
