Why Choose a Professional Piercer for Your Baby's Ear Piercing?
At Forever Ink, We Prioritize Comfort and Care
We use the best numbing solution, ensuring your baby feels no pain during the process. Unlike malls or pediatrician offices, where numbing creams are not used, we focus on making the experience painless and stress-free for your child.
Safety and Hygiene
1. Sterilization:
Piercing needles are sterilized in an autoclave, guaranteeing a completely clean and bacteria-free environment. Piercing guns, however, have multiple crevices and surfaces where bacteria can hide, making proper sterilization nearly impossible.
2. Cross-Contamination:
Piercing guns are prone to cross-contamination since their mechanisms and surfaces may come into contact with bodily fluids. Piercing needles eliminate this risk by being single-use and fully sanitized.
Precision and Control
1. Accurate Placement:
A piercing needle allows precise control over placement, ensuring the earring is positioned exactly where intended. In contrast, piercing guns often result in uneven piercings. The blunt force pushes the ear outward and upward, leading to crooked piercings that are both painful and visually unappealing.
2. Gentle and Smooth Technique:
Piercing needles are designed to glide smoothly through the skin, reducing discomfort and minimizing the risk of trauma or complications. Piercing guns are forceful and cause significant pain, unnecessary stress, and potential long-term damage, such as keloid formation.
Reduced Risk of Complications
1. Tissue Damage:
Piercing guns rely on blunt force trauma, which can lead to swelling, tissue damage, and slower healing. In contrast, piercing needles create clean, smooth holes, promoting healthier and faster healing.
2. Nerve Damage:
The forceful nature of a piercing gun increases the likelihood of nerve damage. This is why locations such as malls or pediatrician offices are not required to be licensed by the Board of Health—they use blunt objects (earring studs) to puncture the skin instead of proper needles, resulting in unnecessary pain and potential lifelong damage.
Don’t let anyone use the Piercing gun on your child!
Parents please take notice of both of the glove hands piercing this poor little baby. Look at the angle of their hands holding the gun. look how crooked they are. Two totally different angles and this is what you get when the places at the mall and even the pediatricians office tell you… We can pierce your baby at the same time so she doesn’t feel the pain .. Please don’t fall for this. Both ears will be terribly crooked. Both ears will be noticeably offset. Both ears will need to be redone, causing your baby double pain and a waste of money.
