In our culture, ear piercing is very popular. Walking down the street, you can easily notice that most women have at least one earring in each ear. Nowadays, ear piercing is also becoming more and more popular among men. However, piercing can be very dangerous if done incorrectly.
The risks of ear piercing include infections that can be caused by unhygienic and poorly performed piercing. These include: bacterial, viral and fungal infections. They most often manifest themselves as redness around the piercing, pain in this place, and a rash. A poorly selected post-procedure earring can also do a lot of harm to our health. If the earring is made of any metal - even a precious one - it can lead to allergies. Every metal contains nickel, which can cause a very strong allergy. Earrings worn immediately after piercing should be made of Medical Plastic or Medical Titanium. The last hazard when piercing ears is the lack of proper hygiene not only during the procedure but also after it. The ear after piercing is extremely sensitive and susceptible to infections, which is why it is extremely important not to contaminate the wounds created during the procedure and to disinfect them regularly.
The Blomdahl method is a modern method of ear piercing, and it was developed with the safety and comfort of clients in mind. This is an ear piercing that is also great for children. This is not only due to the sterility and safety of the procedure, but also the method of piercing itself. Probably most parents who have persuaded their children to get earrings have encountered a situation in which the child, after piercing the first ear, did not want to pierce the second one due to the pain. The Blomdahl method completely prevents this problem - in this method, both ears are pierced at the same time. The entire procedure can be presented in four main steps.
The Blomdahl method is primarily sterile - disinfection is an important part before ear piercing. During the procedure, the cassettes that have direct contact with the client's blood are disposable. The Blomdahl method also prevents injuries associated with the use of metal earrings - it offers earrings made of the highest quality, friendly materials for a freshly pierced ear. After ear piercing using the Blomdahl method, the client also receives instructions on how to take care of the hygiene and health of the pierced ears after the procedure.
After the Blomdahl ear piercing procedure, the client receives a leaflet from the piercer, which contains information on the proper hygiene of the newly made piercing. A person with newly pierced ears must not touch their ears with dirty hands and must not swim in a lake, sea or river too often. When taking off clothes, they must be especially careful not to accidentally catch the earring with their clothes, and when using hairspray and perfume or when dyeing hair, they must make sure that the earrings are covered. It is also necessary to remember to wash the pierced ear regularly and use Blomdahl ear swabs for daily ear care for six weeks after the piercing. After six weeks from the procedure, the current earring should be changed to hypoallergenic Blomdahl earrings with a thinner pin.
