Product Information

Remember, while there are potential benefits to getting a tragus piercing, it's essential to weigh these against the need for proper aftercare, potential risks of infection or irritation, and individual preferences before making a decision. Seeking advice from a professional piercer is crucial to ensure a safe and successful piercing experience. TRAGUS PIERCING FOR WEIGHT LOSS

Pat dry with a clean, disposable paper product. Cloth towels can hold bacteria and snag on jewelry, so it's best to use a disposable paper towel while your piercing is healing. As with any kind of piercing, there are a few risks involved. One of the most important things to remember is that the area will need to remain clean until it is fully healed. Your piercing artist will supply you with a set of instructions to ensure that the area does not get infected. One of the most dangerous parts of getting any sort of piercing is that it gets infected. The swelling of the tragus piercing for longer than three days may be a sign that there is an infection. An infected tragus piercing can be very painful but by following the hygiene procedures and ensuring you keep the area clean, the risk of any issues is very low!
