Ensuring a safe, clean, and hygienic experience, our approach to nose piercing prioritizes your health and comfort. Performed by healthcare professionals either in the controlled environment of a medical facility or the privacy of your own home, we adhere strictly to modern aseptic techniques. This commitment guarantees that our practices and products are designed to minimize the risk of infection and prevent exposure to common irritants like nickel during the piercing process. By maintaining the highest standards of sterility, we ensure that your nose piercing experience is not only safe but also free from complications.

After-Care for Ear Piercings

Here are the essential aftercare guidelines for your newly pierced ears, designed to ensure a safe and healthy healing process. Follow these simplified steps to maintain hygiene, prevent infections, and enjoy your beautiful piercings with peace of mind.

Touching Your Ears: Avoid touching your ears with dirty hands.

Cleaning: Clean your pierced ears twice daily without removing earrings; use liquid soap or Blomdahl Piercing Aftercare swabs, and dry thoroughly.

Piercing Area: Keep the piercing area clean, dry, and airy. Protect ears from makeup, sprays, and hair dye.

Clothing: Be careful with clothing to avoid snagging earrings.

Swimming: Post-swimming, clean your ears as per cleaning instructions.

Changing Earrings: Change earrings after 6 weeks (12 for cartilage); clean hands and ears first.

Long-Term Care: For a year, always wear earrings, be gentle when changing to prevent infection, and use skin-friendly jewelry. Check piercings regularly.

Age Reccomendation: Piercing is recommended for children aged 4 months to 1 year, as they are less likely to tamper with their earrings, making it easier for parents to manage cleaning and prevent infections. By age 7, children are generally mature enough to take better care of their piercings and minimize the risk of infection, though success heavily relies on parental guidance and consistent aftercare.

IMPORTANT: Seek medical advice for signs of infection, especially with cartilage piercings.

Caring For Your Nose Piercing

Here are the simplified and essential steps for caring for your new nose piercing, ensuring a safe and healthy healing process:

Hygiene and Handling: Avoid touching the piercing with dirty hands and picking your nose.

Cleaning the Piercing: Wash the piercing twice daily with liquid soap without removing the jewelry. Rinse well and dry with a tissue or Q-tip. Alternatively, use Blomdahl Piercing Aftercare cleansing swabs for gentle, effective cleaning. Use a new swab each time and allow to air dry.

Maintaining a Clean Environment: Keep the pierced area clean, dry, and well-ventilated.

Protecting the Piercing: Cover the piercing when using makeup or perfume. Be cautious with clothing, face washing, nose blowing, and sleeping to prevent the jewelry from dislodging. Consider covering the piercing with a plaster while sleeping for extra protection.

Activity Precautions: Be mindful of the sharp point inside your nose; avoid activities that could harm the piercing.

Water Exposure: Delay swimming in pools, lakes, or seas as long as possible after piercing. After water exposure, clean the piercing.

Changing the Jewelry: After 4 weeks, you may switch to new jewelry. Wash hands and the piercing area before changing. Handle the area and jewelry gently to prevent injury and infection.

Long-Term Care (up to 1 year): Always wear nose jewelry to prevent closure. Be extra careful when changing jewelry to avoid tearing the delicate skin inside the piercing. Opt for skin-friendly jewelry, like those recommended by Blomdahl, to reduce allergy risk. Continue cleaning and monitoring the piercing throughout the first year.
