Product Information

I like that it explained step by step how to pierce, how to clean and take care of it, and what to look for as far as infections. You should do full sea salt solution soaks 2-3 times a day and mist your piercing with aftercare spray 3–6 times a day until the infection clears up. First, you’ll want to make sure that your new jewelry is the same gauge as the jewelry you’re removing. A standard belly button piercing is placed about 1/2″-1″ above the belly button, traveling down and out through the upper lip of the navel cavity.

Apply this solution to both the top and bottom of your belly button piercing using clean cotton balls. Wow, there's some cool mums on this thread 🙄 If I'd done this, my parents would have gone absolutely mental. This is to be expected but it is important to keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t become infected after being caught.You’ll need a body piercing clamp, a 14-gauge piercing needle, and a 14-gauge belly button ring made of a safe material like stainless steel or titanium. You may need to check you can have a belly button piercing done as not all navels are suitable for piercing. Unfortunately, some belly buttons are not suitable for navel piercings but your piercer will be able to advise on whether you are a suitable candidate for a navel piercing.

Allergic reaction: If the skin around your piercing is consistently and noticeably red, irritated, and itchy, you may be having an allergic reaction. It’s not recommended to wash your belly button with soap for at least the first few months after you get pierced. You can do this by submerging the items in rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide and leaving them to sit in the liquid for a minute or two. Some people develop atrophic scars after removing their belly button jewelry, which are recessed scars with a rough-textured surface that doesn’t quite fill the hole where the piercing was.If you have sensitive skin that is prone to irritation, one of the many Titanium jewellery options is recommended. Sea salt soaks three times per day coupled with frequent aftercare spray applications in between soaks is necessary. Treating keloids often requires the help of a dermatologist, although silicone scar therapy gel can help reduce their appearance in some cases. There are a couple different options you have, the first being to purchase a special-made pregnancy ring. Hold the container firmly as you stand upright, and hold it tightly against your skin for 5 minutes.

With good navel piercing aftercare, you should find your belly button piercing becomes more comfortable and clears up over time. I'd suggest that she removes it so it can heal on the promise that she can have it done properly when it's healed nicely. To make your own soak, boil water for at least 5 minutes to sterilize it, measure out 1 cup into a heat-safe container, stir in 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt (not table salt, which contains iodine—we recommend using Recovery Sea Salt ), then let the mixture cool off. jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"
