Before Drilling:
Important Aspects and Considerations: Before you take the plunge, it's essential to know a few key things. From researching the piercing studio to proper preparation and understanding potential risks, we'll cover everything you need to know before getting your new piercing.
Before getting pierced, it is important to consider the following:
Does the store give an impression of cleanliness?
Is equipment disinfected in the store?
Do they open the needle in front of you before starting the piercing? Every piercing must be done with a previously sterilized disposable needle. Safety is paramount.
Does the piercer wear latex gloves? They should always wear them and disinfect the area after each client.
Do they use a piercing gun? Professionals only use needles to pierce. If they use a gun, they are not experts.
¿What is the best material for pierced jewelry?
All ear piercing jewelry should be made of stainless steel, titanium, 14k gold, PTFE/Bioplast (a medical grade plastic), or wood or natural stone (for stretching ears).
Post Piercing Care:
Once you have gotten your new women's ear piercing, proper care is crucial.
In many pharmacies you can find saline solutions that are excellent for cleaning wounds. Please consult your piercer for more information.
- Do not touch or pick at piercings or jewelry. Wash your hands thoroughly before touching your ears or earrings.
- Don't forget that you recently had your ears pierced. Avoid pulling on your ears when changing clothes, wearing glasses, talking on the phone, or combing your hair.
- Be careful at bedtime to avoid putting pressure on the side of the piercing.
- Do not use alcohol or hydrogen peroxide on the piercing. These products stimulate tissue healing.
- Do not apply antibiotic ointments, gels or creams to the piercing. They attract dust and prevent air from reaching the area.
- Avoid using makeup, lotions, and hair products near your piercing.
- Do not enter a hot tub, pool, or lake until the wound has healed.
- Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn and irritate the piercing.
