Ear Piercing Q&A
Why Choose Our Ear Piercing Services?
Blomdahl Medical System: We utilize the Blomdahl ear piercing system, which is available exclusively through medical professionals. This system is designed to provide a safe and sanitary alternative to traditional mall or jewelry store piercings. Each piercing is performed using a sterile, single-use cartridge, and we only use medical-grade plastic or titanium studs, significantly reducing the risk of allergic reactions.
Expert Care: Our healthcare team treats ear piercing as a medical procedure, ensuring that every aspect of the process is handled with care and professionalism.
Service Highlights
Age Requirements: Ear piercing is available for infants aged 2 months and older who have received their first set of immunizations. Infants will be held in their parent’s arms during the procedure, which minimizes discomfort.
Cost: The total cost for ear piercing is $100 which includes:
-
- – A pair of sterile earrings
- – The piercing procedure by our trained staff
- – Aftercare instructions
Appointment Only: We do not accept walk-ins. Appointments must be scheduled in advance to ensure a dedicated time for the procedure.
Safety and Aftercare
Post-Care Instructions: After the procedure, we provide comprehensive aftercare instructions. It’s crucial to keep the area clean and to avoid swimming in pools or natural waters for at least six weeks post-piercing to prevent infections.
Risks: While the risk of infection is minimized through our sterile techniques, it is essential to follow aftercare guidelines carefully. Keloids, or raised scars, can occur, particularly in individuals with darker skin pigmentation or those who have a family history of keloids.
Restrictions: We only pierce the earlobes and do not pierce cartilage, noses, or other areas, as these can complicate healing.
