FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
How do I look after my piercing?Cleanse the front and back of your ear 2-3 times daily using the Studex Aftercare Solution. Whilst cleaning, rotate the earring 2-3 times (half turn only). In between cleaning, the ear should be kept dry. After shampooing, ensure the ear is rinsed thoroughly. The butterfly must be kept at the tip of the post, exactly where it is at the time of piercing. Do not put the butterfly towards the ear. This ensures that the earring remains loose whilst healing to allow air to circulate, reduce the risk of swelling and discomfort.
-
When can I change my earrings?If you are using Studex Advanced Aftercare Solution, you can change your earrings 3 weeks after piercing. The healing period for cartilage piercing us 8 weeks. If you are using the Studex After Piercing Lotion, it is recommended to change your earrings no less than 6 weeks after piercing and 12 weeks for cartilage piercings. It is important that once you have removed the jewellery, you clean the site thoroughly and continue to wear hypoallergenic jewellery continuously to prevent the piercing from closing. We recommend using straight post (not curved) earrings continuously for the first 6 months from piercing.
