6Pcs Disposable Ear Piercing Gun with Ear Studs No Pain Safety Ear Piercing Gun Kit Tool for Girls Boys Women Men

Product Information

When the alignment of the stud is correct, the piercer releases the trigger, and the force of the spring causes the instrument to fire with considerable pressure, snapping the plunger forward, pushing the point of the stud rapidly through the earlobe, and engaging it with the clasp behind the earlobe, completing the ear piercing. The paper goes on to note that a much better method of piercing might involve a highly sharp needle that was the same diameter as the jewellery that is inserted thereafter. In such cases, needle piercing is a more suitable option due to the availability of hypoallergenic metals. If one of those clients had HIV or another bloodborne illness, then the story could have been much more tragic.

How often such gun malfunction occurs has not been documented by manufacturers, but some gun operators report that it is frequent. These items are designed to be manufactured as cheaply as possible, with little regard for the safety of the person who has to wear them. Ear-piercing studs can be too short or wrongly shaped for the tissue, especially for oral piercings, and can lead to problems with "embedding" in which the wound effectively heals over it. The studs have a pointed tip designed to pierce the earlobe rapidly when the trigger mechanism is released, and a "shoulder" to hold the clasp in place, and to maintain appropriate spacing between the clasp and the stud head, such that the earlobe is not squeezed while healing. For other body piercings, the gauge of the studs used by piercing guns is too narrow and can lead to tearing and other trauma that expose the body to infection and can cause permanent scarring.This means that the worker using the piercing gun is a much more affordable option than hiring a fully trained piercer and either installing a sterilisation room or going fully disposable with blade needle piercings.

It is recommended to have your ears pierced by a professional in a sterile environment to minimize the risk of infection and other complications. However- if I was taking my child to get her ears done, I'd go to my piercer and get it done with a needle, just to further minimise the risk of infection. This recent paper discusses a case in which a scaffold piercing was performed using a piercing gun, and a Pseudomona aeruginosa infection was confirmed by the hospital after 48 hours.Initially, the pressure of the gun’s mechanism is sufficient to force the pieces to lock over the tissue. I have 6 lobe piercings done with a gun- all fine, I wouldn't spend too much on lobe piercings if you tend to heal well. It is also important to note that whenever the earrings are replaced that a good quality metal is used that is hypoallergenic and not too heavy, as it can be easy to stretch a new piercing into a slit with heavy earrings.

I see a huge amount of social media posts from parents asking for recommendations for good, safe and hygienic places to go for ear piercing for children.My lobes were always done with a gun and they healed fine, I also had numerous ear piercings over the years.
