Australian Doctors Caution Against Body-Piercing
“The studio should be clean. If you think the studio is not up to standard, then trust your instinct and do not get a piercing there. Don’t be afraid to ask the piercer some questions about their skills and experience and ensure you know everything about the procedure you are considering.”
Dr Hambleton encouraged people considering having a piercing to seek advice from their doctor.
“Your doctor can discuss the risks with you, tell you how to make sure a piercing studio is safe, and show you how to care for your piercing and what to do if something goes wrong,” he said.
“Some doctors are happy to do piercing for their patients in a clean, safe and sterile environment.”
