Curated Piercing

• Discomfort: Some discomfort is normal during the healing process. If you experience significant pain, swelling, or discharge, consult your piercer.
• Jewelry Migration: Some piercings might migrate or shift slightly during the healing process. Regular check-ups with your piercer can help address these issues early on.
• Sleeping: Try to avoid sleeping on the side with new piercings to prevent irritation and pressure on the piercings.
• Infections: Signs of infection include redness, warmth, swelling, and discharge. If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical advice promptly.

Proper aftercare is essential for the healing process of your Curated piercing. Follow these instructions to ensure a smooth healing experience:

• Cleaning Solution: Use a sterile wound wash solution to clean your piercings. This can be purchased at our studio or any drug store.
• Cleaning Frequency: Clean your piercings no more than once or twice a day. Over-cleaning can cause the piercing to dry out and delay healing.
• Cleaning Method:
  • Wash Your Hands: Always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching your piercing.
  • Apply Wound Wash Solution: Spray the wound wash solution onto a clean cotton ball or gauze pad and gently press it against the piercing for a few minutes.
  • Rinse: After soaking, gently rinse the area with clean water to remove any residue.
  • Dry: Pat the area dry with a clean, disposable paper towel or let it air dry. Avoid using cloth towels as they can harbor bacteria.
• Avoid Touching: Do not touch, twist, or play with your jewelry. This can introduce bacteria and cause irritation.
• Avoid Irritants: Keep hair products, perfumes, and other irritants away from your piercing. Avoid submerging your piercing in bodies of water such as pools, hot tubs, lakes, and oceans until it is fully healed.
• Sleeping: Avoid sleeping on the side with the Curated piercings to prevent pressure and irritation. You can use a travel pillow or a donut-shaped pillow to keep your ear elevated and reduce pressure.
• Jewelry Care: Do not change your jewelry until the piercing is fully healed. Healing time for a Curated Ear piercing can range from 6 months to a year. If you need to change the jewelry, it is best to visit your piercer.
• Monitor for Signs of Infection: Watch for signs of infection such as excessive redness, swelling, pain, or discharge. If you suspect an infection, contact your piercer or a healthcare professional immediately.
• Healthy Lifestyle: Maintain a healthy lifestyle to promote healing. Stay hydrated, eat a balanced diet, and avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
• Follow-Up: Schedule a follow-up appointment with your piercer to check the healing progress and ensure everything is on track.
