Medical Ear Piercing
Safe, hygienic ear piercing using the Inverness Ear Piercing System — performed by trained staff for children of all ages.
Ear piercing is a medical procedure, so there is every reason to make sure that it is done properly. Ear and all body piercings carry the risk of very serious blood diseases. Additionally, in recent years, the number of people suffering from nickel allergy has increased dramatically, making hygiene and safety of the utmost importance.
When having your child's ears pierced, it is very important that the equipment being used is modern and safe, and that the person piercing the ears is adequately trained. This is especially important with smaller children. Here at the Pediatric Care Center, our staff is trained to pierce ears of children of all ages and routinely work with very young children who may not want to cooperate.
The ear piercing system used in our office is the Inverness Ear Piercing System — a unique, medically-hygienic system that pierces ears in 3 easy steps. The system features a fully-encapsulated piercing earring and a patented Safety Clutch that allows for true Peace of Mind Piercing: safer healing and the gentlest ear piercing experience possible.
