Piercing Aftercare

1. Listen to Your Piercer
Your piercer at Red Tower Tattoos will provide specific aftercare instructions tailored to your piercing. Follow their advice diligently.

Use a sterile saline solution or a gentle antimicrobial soap to cleanse your piercing twice a day. Do not rotate the piercing jewellery, this will reopen the wound and prolong your healing period.
3. Hands Off

4. Avoid Harsh Products
Refrain from using alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or harsh antiseptics on your piercing. These can irritate the skin and hinder healing.

Choose clothing that won't irritate your piercing. Opt for loose-fitting, breathable fabrics to minimize friction.
