Professional body piercing is the art of using sterile, single-use needles to create an opening in the body for jewellery. A professional piercer ensures proper placement, sterile technique, and appropriate jewellery to minimise risk of infection and promote healing.

A body piercing is a piercing or small hole made in the body using a sterilised needle; a piece of jewellery is normally inserted through the hole to keep it open while it heals.

Aftercare typically includes cleaning with sterile saline solution 2–3 times daily, avoiding touching with unwashed hands, not rotating the jewellery, and keeping the area dry. Your piercer will provide specific aftercare instructions based on the piercing location.

Yes. Infections are common if good hygiene standards haven’t been followed. Scarring, nerve damage, and the transmission of hepatitis B and C are also known risks. If you choose an oral piercing and you play with it, it can cause trauma to the teeth and gum, leading to tooth fractures, gingivitis, and gum recession. Tongue piercings can cause the tongue to swell temporarily. More severe, and even life threatening, side effects have been known. Ask your body piercest to give you a complete overview of the risks before you book your piercing appointment. You can minimise risk by booking your body piercing with an experienced professional who follows stringent hygiene rules.
