INTIMATE PIERCING CARE INSTRUCTIONS

For your piercing to heal without complications, please follow these precautions: - Do not touch or rotate the jewelry during aftercare. Avoid snagging and sudden movements. Take particular care when changing underwear and avoid tight-fitting clothing. Choose loose-fitting garments made of natural fabrics, such as cotton or silk, during healing. Avoid sitting cross-legged. - Do not allow anyone else to touch your fresh piercing, especially during the first few weeks. Avoid oral and genital sex for at least one month* (timing depends on the type of piercing; consult your piercer). For certain piercings, you may also need to avoid masturbation during the initial healing period. - Keep scented, greasy, and oily products away from the piercing. - For intimate piercings, use only water-based lubricants to avoid irritation to the skin and mucous membranes. - Avoid steaming the skin or exposing a fresh piercing to extreme temperature changes. During healing, avoid swimming pools and natural bodies of water for at least one month, and saunas or steam baths for approximately six to eight weeks. - Do not attempt to remove or replace the jewelry yourself. Without experience, you could injure the piercing channel or be unable to reinsert the jewelry. Your body can gradually repair its own tissues, so avoid additional products or medications unless your piercer recommends them. Arrange a follow-up examination or downsizing appointment after two to four weeks. The initial jewelry is fitted with extra length to accommodate swelling. After the swelling subsides, jewelry that is too long can cause discomfort and interfere with healing. Your piercer will select the appropriate post length and can replace the decorative end if you wish, or keep the current one.
