Why Choose Medical Grade Ear Piercing at Caravel Health DPC?

At Caravel Health DPC, we understand that ear piercing is a significant decision, especially when it comes to your child. That’s why we are excited to offer a safe, sterile, and professional environment for ear piercing. Our practice is trusted by families across Redlands and surrounding cities, ensuring peace of mind for patients and parents. Here's why patients choose us for their ear piercing needs:

Unmatched Safety and Sterility

We use the Blomdahl Medical Piercing System, designed specifically for medical-grade ear piercing. Our ISO Health accredited equipment is only available through licensed medical professionals, ensuring the highest level of care. Each piercing is performed with single-use, sterile cartridges, guaranteeing a clean and safe procedure every time.

Sensitive Skin and Allergy Friendly

We use hypoallergenic earrings made from 0% nickel, either medical-grade titanium or medical-grade BPO-free plastic, making them ideal for anyone with sensitive skin or allergies. Our earrings are also designed with features like longer posts and airy backs to promote better healing. Plus, they’re made with premium European crystals for added brilliance.

Comfort and Precision

Our “lock and pierce” system ensures a quick, precise piercing that minimizes discomfort. Unlike traditional piercing guns, which can cause blunt-force trauma, the Blomdahl system is designed to be gentle, reducing pain and promoting faster healing. This approach is especially important for children, ensuring a calm, comfortable experience.

Comprehensive Aftercare

We make sure you know exactly how to care for your new piercings with detailed aftercare instructions. You’ll also have the option of a follow-up consultation to ensure proper healing. Our aftercare kits include hypoallergenic cleaning swabs, reducing the risk of infection and ensuring your piercing heals smoothly.

Expert Care by Physicians

All piercings at Caravel Health DPC are performed by a Board-Certified Physician, trained in infection control and pediatric care. This expert knowledge ensures that you or your child receive the highest standard of care, far surpassing what non-medical settings can offer.

Why Medical-Grade Piercing is Safer

According to studies, up to 35% of women experience complications from non-medical ear piercing, with 43% suffering allergic reactions. Our medical-grade procedures eliminate these risks by using hypoallergenic materials and following strict hygiene protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Medical ear piercing is a safe, sterile, hypoallergenic, comfortable ear piercing option that is performed exclusively by medical professionals. The Blomdahl piercing system was founded in Sweden in 1985. The Blomdahl instrument is considered a medical device and has cleared rigorous standards for use in both the US and overseas. Blomdahl uses modern aseptic techniques to avoid infection.

  • We recommend waiting until your child is at least 6 months old. However, if you choose to pierce your infant’s ears, it’s best to wait until they are at least 3 months old, when their immune system is more developed and they have had their first set of vaccines. The child should also be able to sit still and afterwards not be tugging at ears as this can increase risk of infection and poor healing.

  • The procedure involves a quick pinch, and our trained medical professionals work to ensure it is as painless and comfortable as possible.

  • We use 0% nickel, sterilized Medical Grade Titanium or Medical Grade Plastic, both of which are hypoallergenic and safe for sensitive skin.

  • We try to have a wide variety of options and always have the most popular earrings in stock. If there is a particular one you are interested in, please call first to make sure it is available. We can always order the one you want if we don't have it in stock!

  • Earlobe piercings typically take about 6 to 12 weeks to heal fully depending on the area that is pierced. Following our aftercare instructions is essential for proper healing.

  • Aftercare involves cleaning the pierced area with a sterile saline solution twice a day. Avoid touching the earrings unnecessarily, and be careful when dressing or washing hair. We provide a detailed aftercare guide to ensure your piercing heals smoothly.

  • You should wait until the piercing has fully healed before changing earrings—generally 6 to 12 weeks, depending on the area pierced. Changing earrings too early can lead to irritation or infection.

  • No, but we do recommend it. By scheduling a follow-up appointment 2 to 3 weeks after the piercing we can ensure that it is healing properly and address any concerns you may have.

  • While ear piercing is generally safe, there are risks of infection, allergic reactions, or improper healing if aftercare instructions are not followed. Our medical-grade process significantly reduces these risks.

  • Medical ear piercing is performed by a trained healthcare professional using sterilized, single-use equipment. This ensures a high standard of safety, hygiene, and precision that is not typically found in non-medical settings.

  • Absolutely! Our ear-piercing services are available for patients of all ages, from infants to adults.

  • No. Contrary to popular belief, recent research has shown that needle piercing vs gun piercing do not cause any difference in tissue damage. Blomdahl piercing system was specifically designed to prevent blunt-force trauma.

  • Yes we can- especially for younger children, we can pierce both ears simultaneously to minimize discomfort and ensure a quicker, more efficient experience.

  • We create a calm, supportive environment to help ease any fears. Our trained staff is experienced in working with children and can help make the experience as comfortable as possible.

  • Absolutely. We encourage parents to stay with their child to provide comfort and reassurance throughout the procedure.

  • Our hypoallergenic, medical-grade earrings are designed specifically for sensitive skin and those prone to allergies, reducing the risk of any adverse reactions.

  • You can easily book your ear-piercing appointment online or by calling our office. We offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your needs. If you can't find a time online that works for your schedule, please call us.

  • Yes, our ear-piercing services are open to everyone, whether or not you are a member of our practice. Active members get all piercings for 30% off.

  • No, we can do nose piercings as well.

  • To remove the piercing earring: Wash hands and ears thoroughly. A good time to remove the piercing earring is right after a shower/hair wash. With one hand, take hold of the jewelry part (front) of the piercing earring. With the other hand, take hold of the earring back and wiggle it back and forth, until you feel it loosens. Carefully remove the piercing earring and insert a clean earring. Piercing earrings are only intended to be used during the healing period.

  • A common misconception is that, if you do not rotate the piercing earring, the skin will get stuck to it. This is not true. What is true is that rotating the piercing earring without first having cleaned your ear, earring and hands thoroughly, can infect the ear piercing.
