All clients will receive a full consultation before their piercing that will cover the piercing process, jewelry overview, and piercing placement.
Piercing ages:
Children: 6 & up
Adults
As a general rule, children ages 6 and up are ready for a piercing. Being "ready" means the ability to sit independently through the piercing and understand the simple aftercare advice (no touching!). The goal at Clinical Ear Piercing is to provide a safe and positive experience for all clients.
Frequently Asked Questions
Placement
Aesthetic balance
Proper placement is key to not only a beautiful piercing, but one that stands the test of time. This is where experience matters. After piercing thousands of ears, Rachel Smith has honed her skill set striving for aesthetic perfection in balance while providing a highly personalized service.
Piercing after surgical repair of a torn or stretched lobe can be especially challenging when working around scar tissue and/or other piercings. Rachel Smith performs repiercings on a regular basis and is recommended by renowned plastic surgeons in NYC.
Piercing Studs
Piercing
Sterile and disposable
Clinical Ear Piercing is a "disposable piercing studio" which means that everything used for your piercing is one-time use and disposable. Sterile needles, tools and jewelry are never reused. As a result, the chance of any cross contamination from reprocessing tools is completely eliminated ensuring the safety of both piercer and client.

How to get the best results
Rachel Smith, RN will review your aftercare instructions in detail during your appointment.
Initial piercing jewelry for earlobes is worn for 6-8 weeks (minimum 3 months for cartilage), cleaned with saline spray and is not rotated. As a result of this "no touch" approach, we see extremely low infection rates.
