Body Piercing Healing Process

Be sure to keep your piercings clean and use jewelry made from safe metals while they're healing. Ask your piercing pro for aftercare recommendations and see a physician if your piercing becomes infected.

It's always good to have an understanding of the time it could take to heal specific piercings before you make the decision to book an appointment for a procedure.
