Body Piercings in Vancouver
Consultation & Placement
Every session starts with a one-on-one conversation. We look at your anatomy, talk through your goals, and map placement that suits your body and heals reliably.
- We assess tissue, symmetry, and existing piercings to find the best spots on your body
- We recommend jewellery size, material, and style for your chosen placement
- We mark the site and confirm it with you before anything begins
- We walk you through the process so you know exactly what to expect
This stage matters most for trickier areas – think clavicle, nape, neck, chest, and surface anchor work – where millimetres change everything. Nothing happens until the placement feels right to both of us.
Body Piercing Healing Time
Healing varies widely by location. Earlobes often settle in six to eight weeks, while cartilage, navel, and nipple piercings can take several months to a year. Surface and dermal piercings often need extra patience because the area can look settled before the tissue underneath has fully stabilized. As a rule, anything surface, dermal, or on the chest asks for more care than a straightforward lobe. Sleep, diet, friction from clothing, and how closely you stick to aftercare all nudge the timeline one way or the other. Whatever you do, do not swap the jewellery early – changing it too soon is the quickest way to aggravate fresh tissue and drag the whole thing out.
Aftercare Tips
Good aftercare is the difference between smooth healing and frustrating setbacks. Clean your new piercing with sterile saline as recommended by your piercer, and always wash your hands before touching the area. Skip pools, hot tubs, and shared towels while the piercing is healing, and avoid sleeping directly on a fresh nipple or navel piercing. Steer clear of alcohol-based cleansers and harsh soaps, which dry out healing skin. Leave the jewellery alone – no twisting, no removing – until healing is complete. Eat well, stay hydrated, and give your body rest. If redness, swelling, pain, or unusual discharge gets worse, contact the studio for guidance and seek medical advice if you suspect an infection is developing.
