Thinking about WHERE you’re being pierced is something that not everyone does – maybe being nervous makes you less observant, no one could blame you! Look at a piercing studio – all wipe clean surfaces, a large vinyl-covered bed (in case of a fainter, it helps to have something to lie down on), an autoclave (usually in a separate room – ask to see it if you want!) to sterilize the equipment, easily accessible sink, licenced and registered with the local council to perform these procedures in a safe environment. Inside a high street shop or hairdressers there are a whole range of hazards – a small chair to sit on (you faint, you go on the floor), merchandise hanging close to the piercing area (the microscopic blood spray caused by the heavy force of the gun can spray tiny blood droplets all over this), porous carpets, curtains, wallpaper (these are all unacceptable in a licenced studio), as well as people all over the shop.

Thousands? Of people WITHOUT being sterilized, simply wiped down with some disinfectant. Nose piercing has risks. Your nose is in what doctors call the danger triangle of your face.

Any procedure on this part of your face could cause a serious infection.The healing time for piercings performed with needles, versus those performed with piercing guns are shorter. Piercing guns are unable to create a safe piercing, and the aftercare and healing time for gun piercings, as opposed to needle piercings, varies a great deal, with the additional problems that can occur from gun piercing.
