Choosing a Piercing

STEP 1: Deciding on the Piercing for YOU

Rings are better for ears and for most body piercings
Different body types require different types of body jewelry, with different sizes and thickness. Jewelry which is too thick can cause keloid or abscess.
Jewelry should be made of 316L or LVM surgical stainless steel, 14-karat or 18-karat solid gold, titanium or niobium.
Gold-filled, gold-plated or sterling silver are not suitable. They can chip, tarnish or degrade in a piercing.
If your skin is sensitive to metal, monofilament nylon or Teflon may be used.
Longer barbells are used for tongue piercings to allow for swelling. They can be replaced later.
Don't use jewelry with nicks, scratches, or irregular surfaces
