A PIERCEE'S BILL OF RIGHTS

 

No matter where you decide to have your piercing carried out every person being pierced has the right...

...to be pierced in a scrupulously hygienic environment by a clean, conscientious piercer wearing a fresh pair of disposable latex or nitrile gloves.

...to a sober, friendly, calm and knowledgable piercer, who will guide them through their piercing experience with confidence and assurance.

... to the peace of mind which comes from knowing that their piercer knows and practices the very highest standards of sterilisation and hygiene.

...to be pierced with a brand-new, completely sterilised needle, which is immediately disposed of in a medical sharps container after use on the piercee.

...to be touched only with freshly sterilised appropriate implements, properly used and disposed of or resterilised in an autoclave prior to use on anyone else.

...to know that ear piercing guns are never appropriate, and are often dangerous, when used on anything other than ear lobes.

...to be fitted only with jewellery which is appropriately sized, safe in material, design and construction and which best promotes healing.

...to be fully informed about proper aftercare, and to have access to their piercer for consultation and assistance with all their piercing related questions.

As well as all of the above at P.X. Piercing Clinic all instruments, dishes etc that are not disposable are rinsed, disinfected, ultrasonically cleaned, rinsed, bagged in sterilisation pouches and then autoclaved. The pouches ensure that they remain sterile until opened prior to piercing. Needles used are sterile packed by the manufacturer and disposable. The piercing is marked with a sterile skin marker which is then disposed of. We also have our autoclave spore tested on a monthly basis by an independent laboratory. This ensures that our sterilising equipment continues to perform efficiently. Up to date test results are displayed in the clinic area.
