Ear Piercings FAQ in Elk Grove, CA

How long until you can sleep on a piercing?

How long until I can sleep on my piercing? Usually, it’s safe to sleep after 3 to 4 months. However, some sleepers can take as many as six months and more before they can sleep on the affected side without pain.

How do I know if my ear piercing is healed?

Typically, ear lobe piercings take around 4-6 months, while upper or inner ear piercings take between 6-12+ months to fully heal. You’ll know your ear is healed once any discharge, swelling, redness, flaking, or soreness stops.

How do you shower with a new piercing?

Showering: Shower like you normally do; the last thing you will do while in the shower is clean your piercing. Lather up some mild, fragrance free, non-antibacterial soap in your hands and gently wash your piercing. You want enough friction to clean the piercing, but not so much that you cause trauma to it.

What should I wear after getting my ears pierced?

However, we recommend only wearing small or light stud earrings for your first piercing. For one thing, small studs are much less likely to catch on things and get ripped out. They’re also more comfortable to sleep in (which is important when your piercing is still healing).

Is it painful to get your ears pierced?

While you shouldn’t feel more than a pinch when the needle goes through your ear with lobe piercings, cartilage piercings are known to be quite painful, initially feeling a sharp shock before experiencing a duller throbbing pain.

Can I take out my ear piercing after 2 weeks?

At two weeks, the piercing is not healed. You really should not remove the earring at all until it is completely healed. Taking it in and out before it heals just risks infection and injury, makes it longer to heal, and risks that you won’t be able to heal right and keep an earring in it.

Can I shower after ear piercing?

Your sweat is sterile to you, so shower like you normally do and clean the piercing afterwards with saline or sterile wound wash. Do not swim in rivers, lakes, hot tubs, pools, or oceans until your piercing is healed.

What is the Medusa piercing?

What is a medusa piercing? A medusa or philtrum piercing positions a stud in the center groove above the cupid’s-bow of the lip. A piercer usually fits the piercing with a long labret stud. Once the piercing heals, a person can exchange the stud for a shorter stud to avoid causing damage to their teeth and gums.

What is the cutest piercing?

Helix Piercing. Conch Piercing. Tragus Piercing. Daith Piercing. Rook Piercing. Flat Piercing. Forward Helix Piercing. Septum Piercing.

Which ear piercing is easiest to sleep on?

Daith piercings are one of the few you can initially puncture with a ring instead of a stud. It’s located between the tragus and lower part of the forward helix in the innermost part of your ear (a pressure point some claim can help with migraines), which keeps it protected from irritation during sleep.

Should I take my earring out if it’s infected?

Don’t take out the earring! Clean the infected area 3 times a day. Wash hands with soap and water before touching the ear or earring. Use cotton swab (“Q-Tip”) dipped in pierced ear solution (see #3 below).

What hurts more to get pierced?

The nostril piercing is considered slightly more painful than ears and lips and this is because you are piercing through cartilage which is tougher than skin and therefore hurts a little bit more. However, most people describe a nostril piercing as a very brief sting that makes your eyes water and can make you sneeze.

Is it OK if shampoo touches the piercing?

To avoid infection, keep your hands and anything that touches your new piercing CLEAN. We don’t expect you to stop using hair products during your healing period, but we DO recommend protecting your new piercing from exposure to hair spray and other styling products, including shampoo and conditioner.
