Aftercare Information

A list of aftercare instructions for a new piercing from Erin's Aesthetics, including tips on cleaning, healing, and avoiding irritation, along with contact information and social media icons.

You’ll receive a printed copy of detailed aftercare instructions at your appointment, but here are the key points to remember.

  • Do not remove or change your jewelry if you experience an issue. Reach out to us first so we can assess and resolve it safely.

  • Clean your piercing with sterile saline solution as recommended.

  • Avoid touching, twisting, or sleeping directly on the piercing.

  • Healing can take several months - be patient and consistent with care.

  • Warm compresses should be used at the first sign of irritation or swelling (after initial swelling).

  • You will need to downsize 3 to 6 weeks post piercing - This means shortening the post/bar/ring you were pierced with once swelling has subsided, This is essential for proper and continued healing of the piercing and prevention of snagging, slanting or a bump.
