Aftercare

• Spray your new piercing morning and night with our fav Active Skin Repair solution. For further cleaning for five minutes in the morning and evening use a gentle compress of sterile saline on a non-woven sterile gauze. Do this daily until your piercing is fully cleaned.
• It is normal to have dry build-up on the piercing, gentle compresses and light cleaning will remove it.
• It is good practice to stand under a hot shower and let the warm water clean the piercing just try to keep it dry after gentle cleansing.

• Be careful not to aggravate your new piercing when washing and styling your hair, putting on or removing clothing, and sleeping on your fresh piercing.
• Be careful when doing any strenuous exercise shortly after being pierced.
• Do not remove your jewelry during its healing time as it will begin to close immediately.
• We suggest you avoid swimming in chlorinated pool water or freshwater lakes during the first week of the healing process.
• Do not clean your piercing with Alcohol, Neosporin, or Bactine, these products are not designed for piercing. Keep to using sterile saline solution only.

Your new flatback piercing will probably require a post downsize. We typically pierce with an 8mm length post and recommend downsizing to a 6mm post once swelling has reduced. We offer a post change out kit that comes with your choice of post size, a threader to assist, as well as instructions. You can also book a changeout appointment with a Piercd Provider near you.
