AFTERCARE GUIDE

Now that you've achieved your desired piercing, discover the top methods to properly maintain it. By following the appropriate aftercare routine, you can guarantee a speedy and effortless healing process for your piercing.

The stages of healing

  • When you first get your piercing, you may notice some tenderness and swelling. It is normal to experience occasional discomfort during this time. It is important to be extra careful and cautious as your piercing is still very new.

  • Once the initial discomfort subsides, your piercing will enter the complete healing phase. The healing process of piercings occurs from within, which is why it takes time and necessitates additional patience.

  • A piercing is considered fully healed when the duration of the healing period has been surpassed, the discharge that has been cleansed for several months ceases entirely, and the jewelry rests comfortably in its designated position.
