Wash your hands anytime before touching or cleaning your piercings. Twice a day, use sterile saline wound wash and sterile gauze pads. Spray the gauze pad until wet and place on both sides of the jewelry for 2 minutes. After the soak gently wipe any crust off the piercing.
LEAVE IT ALONE! Do not twist or turn the piercing. Try not to bump it when changing or showering. Try your best not to sleep on your piercing.
Do not submerge the piercing underwater in any lake, river, chlorine pool, hot tub, etc. during the healing process.
Keep your phone off the piercings if it is an ear piercing. Clean your phone regularly.
Clean your pillow case regularly during the healing process if the piercing will be touching it.
Oral Piercings:
Twice a day, use alcohol free/ anti-septic mouth wash. Anytime after eating, drinking, kissing, etc wash your mouth out with water. For the first month, ABSOLUTELY NO yogurt, brown colored liquor, beer, or anything with active yeast. Do not play with the piercing, LEAVE IT ALONE! Smoking lengthens healing time considerably, so if possible do so sparingly or not at all. Carefully ear and drink, do not use straws. Avoid spicy and acidic foods/drinks for at least a few weeks.
Wash your hands and regularly check the ball(s) on the jewelry for tightness.
DO NOT have contact with foreign body fluids for the duration of the healing process. (I.e. making out, oral sex, etc.)
It is recommended that you downsize to shorter/smaller diameter jewelry after 6-8 weeks.
Rest is key to quick healing and the less you play with it, stick it out, chew on it, etc., the faster it will heal.
We also sell Sterile Saline Spray for $5. It is an easy spray and clean substitute.
