What You Need to Know
Q: Why should I choose a hollow needle piercing over a piercing gun?
A: Opting for a hollow needle piercing offers several advantages over piercing guns. Firstly, hollow needles create a cleaner, more precise opening compared to the blunt force trauma caused by piercing guns. This results in quicker healing and reduced tissue damage. Additionally, hollow needles are single-use and sterile, minimizing the risk of infection. Piercing guns, on the other hand, can cause more trauma, leading to prolonged healing times and potential complications. Your safety and comfort are our priorities, making hollow needle piercings the superior choice for a safer and more aesthetically pleasing experience.
Q: Is the pain level higher with a hollow needle piercing compared to a piercing gun?
A: Surprisingly, many individuals find the pain level to be lower with hollow needle piercings. The sharp and precise nature of the needle results in a quicker and less traumatic process. While pain perception varies from person to person, the majority tend to experience less discomfort with hollow needle piercings.
Q: How long does it take for a hollow needle piercing to heal compared to a piercing gun?
A: Generally, hollow needle piercings tend to heal faster than those done with piercing guns. The cleaner and more precise puncture made by the needle promotes quicker tissue recovery. Healing times can vary based on individual factors, but opting for a hollow needle piercing often means a smoother and swifter healing process.
Q: Are hollow needle piercings more expensive than piercing gun procedures?
A: While prices may vary, hollow needle piercings can be slightly more expensive due to the use of sterile, single-use needles and the expertise required for the procedure. However, the investment is worth it for the reduced risk of complications and the overall quality of the piercing.
Q: Can I change my jewelry sooner with a hollow needle piercing compared to a piercing gun?
A: Yes, with hollow needle piercings, you may be able to change your jewelry sooner. The cleaner and more precisely made hole allows for quicker healing, giving you the flexibility to switch to different jewelry styles sooner than with a piercing gun, which may require a longer healing period. Always consult with your piercer for personalized advice based on your healing progress.
