DURING THE PIERCING
-
Lobe piercings will feel similar to getting a vaccine at the doctors.
-
Numbing cream can help alleviate the pain, however it will not fully take it away.
-
You may provide your child with a child-safe pain reliever 30 minutes to an hour before and as needed after the piercing.
-
INFANTS: it is best to feed after the piercing to help sooth them. We do not recommend feeding right before because it can cause them to spit up during the piercing.
-
Healing time for lobes is 2-3 months. Read more about AFTERCARE
