What jewellery is recommended for fresh piercings?

When getting a new piercing, choosing the right size is crucial for proper healing. Initially, looser fit jewellery is recommended to allow airflow and reduced pressure on the pierced area. Proper cleaning is also required for new piercings to reduce any risk of infection.

The Perfect Fit

Once your piercing has fully healed, opt for jewellery that is a better fit and of quality materials to avoid risk of reaction. A tighter fit jewellery piece can also be worn for a more polished look, reduced movement and less snagging. Always check with your piercer before transitioning to tighter jewellery.

Plugs & Tunnels

Monster Piercing offers a variety of stretching jewellery to accommodate your style & comfort. During stretching, always use a lubricant like jojoba or vitamin E oil to ease insertion and reduce trauma, avoiding skipped sizes or forced jewellery to prevent damage or scar tissue. Opt for lightweight jewellery to avoid thinning or tearing of the lobe, and always monitor for irritation or swelling, downsizing if needed. Patience and gradual increases are key to maintaining healthy, stretched piercings.
