PIERCING AFTERCARE

For best results, clean your piercing until it is fully healed. This may take several months depending on your piercing and your own body’s ability to heal.

Wash your hands thoroughly before cleaning your piercing.

Use a sterile saline product on non-woven sterile gauze, and use it as a gentle compress for 5 minutes morning and evening. Wipe gently with a Q-tip to remove any visible blood. Don’t scrub, just remove what comes off after soaking.

Excess moisture can cause irritation, so dry your piercing well after cleaning using a clean paper towel or using the cold setting on a hair dryer.

Do not turn or rotate your jewelry.

Do not clean your piercing with agents such as alcohol or peroxide, or ointments like Neosporin, Polysporin, or Bactine.  These products are not designed for piercings.

Do not pull or pick the dried matter as it is attached to the healing tissue.

Try to avoid sleeping on the piercing. If you have an ear piercing, you can use a travel pillow to suspend ear in the middle of the hole while you sleep.
