Medical Grade Materials

Even safer than gold

Medical science suggests that prolonged exposure to nickel in the form of jewelry and garment fasteners may lead to nickel allergy in the future. We offer two categories of hypoallergenic earrings to be used for piercing.

Nickel-free Medical Grade Plastic: Zero Nickel Exposure!

This non-metal based option ensures zero nickel exposure. Since all metals contain nickel, at least as impurities, we have developed Medical Plastic – ear piercing earrings with 0 (zero) % nickel. Therefore, with Medical Plastic there is no risk whatsoever of developing nickel allergy. Medical Plastic is especially recommended for children and adults who want to be absolutely sure that they will not develop nickel allergy during the healing period.

Medical Grade Titanium: The safest metal for piercing – even safer than Gold.

Titanium is accepted extremely well by the body and is therefore used more and more in implants and other medical applications, often replacing stainless (surgical) steel. We use titanium of a medical grade quality because of its superior non-allergenic characteristics. Nickel can be an impurity in metals, so we say our titanium earrings are 99% nickel free. Titanium tightly binds any nickel that may be present, preventing it from leaking into skin.

Whether you are looking for baby ear piercing, child ear piercing, or adult ear piercing we have years of experience and use the safest techniques and materials possible.

Titanium – the safest metal for ear piercing!

Promote Healing

Our piercing methods provide the best chance of proper healing. Our piercing earrings are designed to cause the least possible effect on tissue, even less than a needle piercing. The illustration below compares different piercing methods.

Prevent Infections

Our Method: The Encapsulated Sterile Single Cassette Disposable System. Because we are medical professionals, we take seriously the issue of infection prevention.

  • Zero Touch System

    (ESSCDS) is a zero touch system that ensures that all parts of the ear piercer remain sterile.  This ensures protection against piercer-to-client contamination.

  • Sterile Disposable Cassette

    This ESSCDS contains one ear piercing stud and one butterfly for one ear piercing (not two as with many other systems). The customer can be certain that this sterile disposable cassette is used solely on him/her and no one else. This ensures protection against instrument to client and client-to-client contamination.

  • No Risk of Contact

    After ear piercing, the ESSCDS is enclosed in a SAFETY COVER before being discarded. This SAFETY COVER protects all parts of the CASSETTE that have been in contact with, or close to, the ear. For the practitioner this means there is no risk of contact with contaminated material and thus no risk of passing on any contaminant to the next client. This ensures protection against piercer to client and client-to-client contamination.

We Pierce Just Ears

Why Not Cartilage Piercings?
The cartilage is the firm tissue which gives the ear, nose or other parts of the body it’s shape and structure. There is not the same kind of “built-in” protection against infection in cartilage as there is in the soft part of the ear (the ear lobe). We do not offer or recommend cartilage piercings as it has many dangers.

  • Piercing through cartilage may cause it to fracture or shatter and deform the body part.
  •  Cartilage has little or no blood supply causing healing to be prolonged. It may take 3 months, and sometimes up to a year for complete healing to occur.
  •  Infection is much more common with cartilage piercings. While you have blood vessels in the soft part, there are no blood vessels in cartilage. The white cells and the oxygen in the red cells of the blood act as a defense against infection. As there are no blood vessels in the cartilage there is no defense mechanism against infection. Infection that occurs around the cartilage is called perichondritis. This infection may not respond to topical antibiotics. Oral and sometimes intravenous antibiotics may be needed to clear up a Perichondritis.
