The Problem With Piercing Guns

Spring-loaded guns use blunt force to push jewelry through tissue, causing more trauma than a sharp needle and making them unsuitable — and often unsafe — for cartilage, which guns cannot fully sterilize between uses.

A sterile, single-use hollow needle creates a clean channel with minimal tissue damage, supporting faster and more predictable healing. It's the professional standard across every placement we offer, from lobes to cartilage to facial piercings.
