Aftercare
  • Image of Lovisa Piercing Station In Store

    The Lovisa Piercing Station is a clean and sterile environment, with a strict sanitization procedure that is performed every day as well as before & after every piercing is performed. We use the latest Studex System 75 piercing device and our Piercing Stylists are fully trained in its use. Your ears will be pierced in an hygienic environment using pre-sterilised tools and individually packaged sterile studs that are hypoallergenic, nickel compliant and made from Surgical Stainless Steel.

    We’ve done everything possible to make sure you feel welcome and comfortable with the procedure when you visit our Piercing stores. We’ll take the time to understand what you are looking for and after the piercing go through the correct aftercare procedures. This is why we’ve become the trusted name in piercing and why our customers choose Lovisa as their piercing destination.

  • STUDEX® SYSTEM 75

    Lovisa has chosen the STUDEX® System 75 piercing system as our preferred method of piercing.

    STUDEX® are the global leaders in piercing. With over 4 decades of experience the name STUDEX® is synonymous with trust and safety in piercing around the world. By selecting Lovisa, you will have your ears pierced by the Studex System 75 which meets & exceeds the USA FDA (Food & Drug Administration) and E.C. (European Communities) standards. STUDEX® system 75 guarantees quality and safety.

    All STUDEX® ear piercing studs are hypo-allergenic and made in the U.S.A. using surgical grade stainless steel and 24 carat gold plate. Our STUDEX® studs are individually packaged, pre-sterilised and sealed in a single use cartridge, which is disposed of after each piercing.

    No guns, needles or reused parts, the STUDEX® System 75 is a guaranteed hygienic and gentle ear piercing process engineered for safety, comfort, and ease of use.

    WHY WE’VE CHOSEN THE STUDEX® SYSTEM 75:

    1. ULTIMATE HYGIENE:

    The system 75 cartridge is designed to be loaded in the instrument while still inside its sterile package providing touch free operation.After piercing, every part of the device that comes in contact with the customer is disposed of. Unlike the old spring loaded or “gun” systems which are reused between customers.

    3. ACCURACY:

    The stud and point are always visible inside the sealed packaging and when loaded in the instrument - for ease of identification and pin point accuracy.

    2. ENHANCED HEALING:

    Automatic positioning of the clasp ensures that the correct space is left at the front and back of the ear to enhance the healing process.

    4. SMOOTH AND GENTLE:

    The STUDEX® System 75 we use is gentle and quiet. Piercing guns are spring-loaded and LOUD! Piercing guns use their spring-loaded power to “shoot” the piercing earring through the earlobe or cartilage. The STUDEX® System 75 uses hand-pressure to pierce the ear quickly and accurately in one smooth, quiet motion.

    • No. Our Studex ear piercing system has been carefully designed to pierce ears virtually pain free. When performed properly, most people feel little or no discomfort.

    • As a general rule, if you are under the age of 16 years old, you will need your parent or legal guardian present with you to consent for you to have your ears pierced. That age consent may differ depending on what territory or country you live in. Please consult your nearest Lovisa store for further information. Make sure you bring a form of identification with you to verify your age such as a driver’s license, school identification, birth certificate or passport.

    • No need to book. Just walk in.

    • Lovisa offers a FREE Ear and Nose Piercing Service that includes FREE aftercare solution with the purchase of your Studex Piercing Studs. The prices vary in each country. Nose piercing is only available to people 16 years and over.

      We also offer children over the ages of 3 years old a free Lovisa Teddy Bear (while stocks last) and certificate to make their ear piercing experience extra special.

    • The Studex System 75 can be used on the ear lobe and upper flat cartilage area only.  Piercings will depend on each individual and suitability to pierce in the desired location. This will be discussed as part of your consultation with your Piercing Stylist.

    • We have a designated piercing station that is not in a room in our Lovisa stores. This ensures that you are in a comfortable, friendly and trusted environment.

    • Some people are allergic to nickel, the EU nickel directive regulates how much nickel may be released onto the skin per week. For earrings, these are a maximum of 0.2 micrograms per square centremeter per week (ie. 0.2 millionth of a gram). All Studex studs and earrings fall well below this allowable value and thus nickel safe and allergy free. If fact, all Studex studs and hoops are hypoallergenic, nickel safe, lead-, codium- and cobalt free

    • We understand that some people may be allergic to latex or have sensitive skin. At Lovisa we use Nitrile gloves which have the lowest allergy rate of any glove material on the market.

    • All Studex jewellery for piercing is hypoallergenic and has been designed for the most sensitive skin as well as being fully compliant with the EU Nickel directive. Importantly each piece of jewellery is pre-sterlised and packaged to allow the piercer to load the earring or stud with no contact, thus guaranteeing the safety.

    • A minimum of 6-8 weeks for ear lobe piercings and 12 weeks for ear cartilage piercings. You should only switch your earrings after the recommended healing period.

    • If you are on blood thinning medication, please see your doctor for advice.

    • You must follow the aftercare guidelines for the entire duration of the healing process. Ear lobes take 6-8 weeks to heal and cartilage takes 12 weeks to heal. Even if your new piercings feel like they have healed, please continue the aftercare process that Lovisa have provided you with.
