Always Wash Your Hands Before Taking Care Of Your Piercings.

STANDARD NON-ORAL PIERCINGS

All Ear, Navel, and Nipple

​

  • Start by washing your hands.

​

  • Spray a tiny amount of the NeilMed sterile saline wound wash you purchased from us on a gauze pad. Gently press the gauze pad against the piercing for 30 seconds 2 times a day (morning and night). pat the piercing dry with a paper towel.

​

  • While in the shower, after washing, let the warm water run over the piercing flushing out any chemicals that may have entered the channel. Once out of the shower, pat the piercing dry with a clean towel or paper towel.

​

  • Try to keep the piercing as dry as possible. From wet hair on ear piercings or sweat in clothing.

​

     âœ¨Remember - your body will do all of the hard work.

​

     ðŸš©Do not touch, pick at, move or rotate the jewelry at all. Leave it alone as much as         possible during the healing process.

 

     ðŸ’«Jewelry downsizing should be done 4-8 weeks after the initial piercing and can           take anywhere from 6 months up to a year to fully heal.

Standard piercing care

TONGUE PIERCINGS

​

  • For cleaning rinse with chilled distilled water for 30 seconds after every meal and drink and every 2 hours in between as well. You will experience a decent amount of swelling and soreness and will need to keep ice on it somewhat consistently for the first 2-4 weeks. You can also use mild anti-inflammatories per your doctors discretion.

  • We recommend that you stick with softer and less abrasive foods for the first few days until you get used to having the jewlery in your mouth. From there you can move up as you feel more and more comfortable with it.

​

Do not play with jewelry at all as this can cause tearing and scarring.

LIP PIERCINGS

​

  • Spray a tiny amount of the NeilMed sterile saline wound wash on a gauze pad. Gently press the gauze pad against the piercing for 30 seconds 2 times a day (morning and night).

  • While in the shower, after washing, let the warm water run over the piercing flushing out any chemicals that may have entered the channel.

  • For the inside of your lip, rinse with a chilled distilled water for 30 seconds after every time you eat or drink something for at least 4-6 weeks.

  • Do not play with or rotate the jewelry and leave the piercing alone as much as possible while it is healing.

  • You will experience mild swelling for a few days to a few weeks. You can use ice and cold compresses to help ease this as well as mild anti-inflammatories per your doctors discretion.

  • *Be Sure to gently pat the area dry after each cleaning*
