Clean the pierced area(s) with Studex® After Piercing Lotion at least once a day. More frequent cleaning is necessary after excessive physical activity. Avoid touching the piercings whenever possible.
Some schools, sports clubs or other institutions have strict regulations on wearing jewellery. Earrings may generally be forbidden during sports activities or must be covered with tape or bandages. Please obtain information about these regulations in advance. To prevent the new holes from closing, the piercing earrings should not be removed during the healing period. If this is not possible because of any regulations, we recommend planning your ear piercing for the vacation period.
During the healing period (6 weeks for earlobes, 12 weeks for ear cartilage) it’s best to avoid swimming. After all, each new ear piercing is a small wound, which should be kept as clean as possible. Public swimming pools are often contaminated with germs, especially bacteria. And pools that use chlorine may cause problems, since chlorine and its by-products can dry out and irritate your skin. Even lakes or oceans may be contaminated with germs. Therefore, if you decide to go swimming anyway and your ear gets in contact with water, we recommend that you follow your swim with using a care product. You may also use a waterproof bandage, which you should remove after swimming.
