Frequently asked questions about helix piercing
Some doubts may arise when placing the helix piercing. Like any other body modification, you need to be very careful and follow some guidelines.

Does it hurt to put?
Marília reports that, according to her experience, pain is quite relative. It will vary from person to person. Some are more sensitive, some are not. Also according to her, because it is in the cartilage, a more sensitive and thin area, it is possible that there is pain at the time of application.
How long does it take to heal?
The specialist says that it depends on each organism. But generally a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 1 year.
What is the best ear to put the jewelry on?
The bodypiercer indicates placing the jewelry in the ear that you least touch the pillow.
What is the care of the helix piercing?
The first essential care is not to touch your piercing so as not to accumulate dirt and bacteria. Not sleeping on top of the area is also important so that the hole can breathe. Alcohol is also not recommended for cleaning the place. Use antiseptic ointments and sprays only if recommended by your bodypiercer or a healthcare professional. Bodypiercer recommends making a saline compress for the first 5 days after the puncture.
If there is inflammation or bleeding, you should look for a general practitioner to carry out the treatment. Avoid self-medication.
How soon can I change the jewelry?
Marília indicates that the jewelry is changed after the healing process that lasts at least 3 months.
These questions are the most frequent when we talk about helix piercing. Although care is simple, it is important to pay close attention and capture as much information as possible before drilling the hole. For all your doubts to be resolved, it is important to look for a trained professional who performs the procedure safely and hygienically.
