ear piercing
One of the most important
parts of getting your ears pierced is
taking care of them. In order to obtain
the best results
I am thoroughly trained
in ear piercing procedures and health
and hygiene precausions to avoid any
infections or cross contamination.
I only pierce the lower
lobe and I do not pierce any other parts
of the body.
Do not do the piercing
yourself and do not let anyone who is
not a professional do it either. This
will help you avoid infection. Never
rush into a piercing. Select the
stud carefully and avoid studs made of
nickel or brass, which can cause
allergic reactions. Look for studs made
of titanium, 14-carat gold or
surgical-grade steel.
Sterile
is an absolute; something is either
sterile or it is not. There is no
in-between.
Cleaning Your Piercing:
1. First, wash your hands thoroughly.
Never touch your piercing or jewellery
with dirty hands.
2. Saturate a cotton ball with warm
water, and gently wipe away any "crusties"
that have gathered around the piercing
site. Throw the cotton ball away.
3. Apply a generous amount of liquid
soap to your hand, and apply to the
piercing site and stud Make sure you
get the soap everywhere, but rotating
the stud is not really necessary unless
you notice it trying to "stick" to your
skin.
4. Rinse the piercing and stud several
times with warm water, ensuring that all
soap has been removed.
5. Dry your piercing with a clean paper
towel, and throw the towel away. |
