Piercing After Care Recommendations

  • Do not touch your piercing! This includes twisting the jewellery to avoid bacteria which could lead it to longer healing times or infection or skin rejecting the piercing
  • Clean your new piercing twice daily with sterile saline solution and do not remove the jewellery for any reason unless instructed by your piercer or a medical professional. Other than this; do not get the piercing excessively wet where possible. Clean running water in the shower should also  be enough to clear anything around the piercing if you don’t have saline.
  • Never leave the piercing site wet or moist as this can attract bacteria
  • To drying your piercing, use a fresh cotton tip and lightly pat dry, avoid moving piercing. You can also use a hair dryer on cool temp setting to help dry the area (keeping at a safe distance)
  • Never touch a fresh or healing piercing, including sleeping on it, or causing any sort of movement or pressure (eg. glasses, helmets, tight clothing, masks etc.)
  • Avoid soaking or submerging the piercing in any bodies of water (including the ocean and pool or creeks and dams) for the entire healing period. This timeframe will vary person to person and is recommended to avoid these activities until your 6-12week review and approval by your piercer.
