Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about One Ear Or Nose Piercing.

Arrive with clean skin, avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications, and bring ID. We recommend washing your hair and face, and choosing comfortable clothing for ear access. Our piercers will review consent and jewelry choices before starting.

Most clients describe brief, sharp discomfort during the quick piercing, typically over within seconds. Sessions last about 15 to 30 minutes including consultation and placement. We focus on comfort techniques and aftercare to minimize soreness during healing.

We offer medical-grade titanium, surgical stainless steel, 14k gold, and hypoallergenic acrylic options. Your piercer will recommend the best choice based on skin sensitivity, placement, and healing needs to reduce irritation and promote healthy healing.

Clean the area twice daily with saline solution, avoid twisting or touching, and keep hair and products away. Follow our printed aftercare sheet, avoid swimming in pools initially, and contact us if you notice redness, swelling, or unusual discharge.

Wait until fully healed before changing jewelry—typically six to eight weeks for earlobes, longer for cartilage or nose. If unsure, return for a check. Changing too early risks irritation, embedded jewelry, and compromised healing.

Contact us immediately for advice and possible follow-up care. Mild redness and swelling are normal, but severe pain, spreading redness, fever, or unusual discharge may indicate infection. We’ll assess, recommend treatment, and refer to medical care if needed.
