Packaged sterile saline solution is a gentle choice for post-piercing care. If sterile saline is not available in your area, mixed sea salt solutions may be a viable alternative. Stronger mixtures are not better; too much saline solution can irritate the piercing.
What do I have to do?
Wash your hands before touching the piercing; leave it alone except when cleaning. You don't have to twist your jewelry while healing. You can also buy piercing aftercare spray via https://afterinked.com/products/piercing-aftercare-3oz for cleaning the piercing.

• Make sure your bed linen is washed and changed regularly. Wear clean, comfortable, breathable clothing that will protect your piercing while you sleep.
• Bathing is safer than bathing because bathing can harbor bacteria. When you shower, clean it well before use and rinse your piercing when you go out.
Instructions for cleaning body piercing
- Wash your hands thoroughly before cleaning or touching your piercing for any reason.
- The flush saline solution as needed while healing. In certain areas, it will be easier to apply it with a clean gauze soaked in salt. A quick rinse will then remove any residue.
- If your piercing suggests using soap, gently lather around the piercing and rinse if necessary. Avoid using heavy soaps or with dyes, perfumes, or triclosan.
- Rinse thoroughly to remove soap residue from the piercing. There is no need to twist jewelry through the piercing.
- Dry by gently tapping with a clean disposable paper product, as cloth towels can harbor bacteria and fine jewelry, which can cause injury.
