Your piercing technician is best placed to advise you on how to care for your new piercing, but as a rule of thumb, you should clean your new piercing at least twice a day, washing your hands first, then cleansing the front and back of the piercing with a cotton pad that’s been dipped in sterile saline solution. You should also avoid touching your piercing until it’s fully healed, and you should try not to remove the piercing jewellery as it could cause the hole to shrink.

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.

Healing times vary by location. Ear lobes heal in 6–8 weeks; cartilage can take 6–12 months; navel piercings 6–12 months; and nose piercings 4–6 months. During healing, it's important to follow aftercare guidance and avoid changing jewellery prematurely.
