FAQ

Here are some of our frequently asked questions:

  • Do you pierce with a needle or gun?
    Neither. I use a gentle, hand pressured device to pierce the ears. The hand pressured device is not spring loaded like a piercing gun therefore, it dose not push the earring into the ear which can cause trauma. Because the device is hand pressured, I have full control of the earring going into the ear. The earring will be pierced into the precise location. This limits the chance of poor placement and/or need for reperching . The piercing device uses a single use, sterile cassette with the earrings enclosed and is exclusively carried by medical professionals. These factors decrease the risk of cross-contamination between patients therefore, making the piercing procedure safer and hygienic.
  • What ages do you pierce?
    Infants- Adults. Infants must be 2 months of age and older and have received their first TDAP vaccine in order to be pierced. Toddlers and children must be able to sit still.
  • What parts of the ears do you pierce?
    Currently, I only pierce the ear lobes and cartilage
  • Do you perform piercings on males?
    Yes
  • How long does it take to heal?
    Please take into account that everyone’s skin heals different but on average lobe piercings take 6 weeks to heal. For a cartilage piercing it takes 12 weeks to heal. You will need to continuously keep the earrings in the ear for a year in order for it to heal and not close up.
  • How long should I wait to go swimming?
    Wait 24 hours before swimming in a chlorinated pool. You should 2 two weeks before swimming lakes, ponds, rivers. To reduce the risk of infection, piercings need to be cleansed immediately after swimming.
  • Can I use my own earrings?
    No, to decrease the risk of sensitivity; only medical-grade titanium or plastic, hypoallergenic, nickel-free earrings will be used to pierce. These earrings are safer and are apart of the price!
  • What if I have diabetes or keloid?
    For your own safety, I advise to consult with your Primary Care Provider and get their clearance prior to piecing services.
  • Can I add additional piercings
    Sure! It costs $50 for each additional piercing.
  • What piercings do you offer?
    Earlobes Upper cartilage Mid cartilage Helix Flat helix Nose piercings ONLY
  • What is an FAQ section?
    An FAQ section can be used to quickly answer common questions about you or your business, such as “Where do you ship to?”, “What are your opening hours?” or “How can I book a service?” It’s a great way to help people navigate your site and can even boost your site’s SEO.
