Answer
Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah’s guidance)

It is not permissible to pierce any part of the body other than the ears and the nose for women.

The scholars limited the permissibility of piercing the body to the ears and nose . [Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar]

Piercing is considered mutilation [muthla] of the body which is unlawful in Islam.

Hence, it would not be permissible to pierce the lip, belly button etc, since that is not considered the adornment for any decent women. [Radd al-Muhtar 5:270]

Therefore, to pierce the lip, belly button, nipples etc, is Haraam even for the pleasure of the husband.

Also, It should be remembered that women must observe the Hijab when she’s outdoors. As the Hijab is a veil for the Women unlike the head scarf.

And Only Allah Ta’ala Knows Best.
