No more hesitation after the first ear has been pierced. This method is faster, feels safer and is more comfortable for the child

You don't have contact allergies?

That’s great! Then we can help you avoid them in the future as well. Allergies can develop at any time in life and a piercing makes you more vulnerable to inappropriate materials such as nickel, gold, cobalt, epoxy, etc. That is why Blomdahl is so careful to use only the safest materials.

Our hypoallergenic piercing earrings are developed in consultation with skin specialists and suitable for everyone, even if one already has an allergy. You can choose between hypoallergenic piercing earrings made from carefully selected plastic or titanium of pure medical quality. The coating is applied only to the parts of the jewellery that do not come into close contact with your child's skin.

Skin friendly materials – even for those with allergy

Blomdahl Medical Plastic

ecom-no-replace-6_ffa5028f-c9cc-416b-b18a-1ede0d55eee6

Blomdahl Medical Grade Titanium

ecom-no-replace-7_e39726e3-fbf3-4704-8147-63858813868f

Blomdahl’s Medical Grade Titanium is the safest of all metals because it binds what little nickel there is extremely well. In other words, little or no nickel is released into the skin and underlying tissue. From an allergy perspective, it is the safest of all metals. Medical Grade Titanium is accepted extremely well by the body and is therefore used more and more in implants and other medical applications, often replacing stainless (surgical) steel.

Piercing earrings
for optimal healing

Blomdahl medical piercing earrings are not like ordinary earrings. They are specially designed to facilitate the healing so that you can easily change to regular earrings after the healing period.

Optimal healing

When air can circulate around a new piercing, it will heal better. That’s why the earring backs on Blomdahl medical piercing earrings are always fixed at the tip of the post

Medical grade materials

Our Medical Plastic piercing earrings are 100% nickel-free. This ensures that there are absolutely no chances of developing a nickel allergy.

Our Pure Medical Titanium piercing earrings are sourced from the highest quality (grade 1-4).

This makes them suitable for even the most sensitive of skin types.

Safer to change earrings

Blomdahl ear piercing creates slightly wider holes in the beginning and thereby prevents them from getting so easily damaged when you change earrings

When having your ears pierced

Before having your ears pierced, you will have to attest that you have received our written aftercare instructions and that you accept the conditions stated within.

The conditions for Blomdahl medical ear piercing are:

Parental/guardian consent is required if I am under legal age (Legal age in Australia is 16 years old or older)
I am/minor is in good health and do not have any ailments which make it recommendable to refrain from nose piercing.
After the medical ear piercing, the holes are my parent's/guardian's. responsibility. A new piercing is the same as a small wound. Therefore it is important to take care of it correctly during the healing period, so it does not get infected. By following the aftercare instructions, I minimize the risk of infection.

Aftercare instructions – During the healing period

ecom-no-replace-12_abb8c296-c0f2-4533-8087-c34984738022

1/
Never touch the ears with unclean hands.
2/
Wash the newly pierced ears (on both sides) thoroughly twice a day.
Do not remove the earrings when cleansing:

+
When showering/washing your hair, use liquid soap and rinse thoroughly with clean running water. Dry with a Kleenex or Q-tip.
+
Supplementary cleansing is done with Blomdahl Piercing Aftercare cleansing swabs, which are gentle on the skin. The swabs make it possible to clean between your ears and the earrings/earring backs. Allow to air dry. Use a new cleansing swab for each ear, each time. Note! Do not clean with alcohol.

How To Cleanse

3/
Make sure that the area around the holes are kept clean, dry and airy at all times.
4/
Cover your ears when applying makeup, hair spray, spray perfume, hair dye, etc.

5/
Take extra care when you are putting on/pulling off clothing over your head, in order to prevent the earrings from getting caught.
6/
Bathing in a swimming pool, lake or sea: wait for as long as possible after getting your children's ear pierced and avoid keeping the head underwater. When they come out of the water, cleanse with liquid soap or with Blomdahl Piercing Aftercare cleansing swabs – see point 2 above.
7/
After approx. 6 weeks (cartilage approx. 12 weeks) you can change to new earrings. This is how to remove the ear piercing earrings: wash your hands and ears thoroughly. With one hand, take hold of the jewellery part (front) of the ear piercing earring. With the other hand, wriggle the earring back, back and forth, until you feel it loosens. Carefully remove the ear piercing earrings and put in new, clean earrings.

How To Remove The Ear Piercing Earrings?

8/
It takes up to a year before the holes are completely healed after medical ear piercing. Hence consider the following:

+
Always wear earrings. If you take them out, the holes can shrink and/or close completely.
+
Take extra care when changing earrings. The skin that has grown within the holes is still thin and delicate and can easily tear, which may cause an infection. Therefore, always make sure to wash your earrings and your hands before the change, and make sure that the area around the holes is kept clean, dry and airy. If you use earrings with earring backs, these should not be pressed tightly against the back of the ear.
+
The risk of developing a contact allergy is at its greatest during the first year after children's ear piercing. This is why it is extra important to wear safe earrings during this time. In consultation with skin specialists, Blomdahl has developed skin friendly jewellery suitable for everybody and especially for children and those who have just pierced their ears.

Precautionary

advice:

In some rare cases, redness/swelling/pain/rashes are indicative of a possible infection. If the hole is placed in the soft part of the ear (ear lobe), remove the earring and cleanse. If there is no improvement the following day, contact your doctor. If the hole is placed in the cartilage part of the ear, remove the earring, cleanse and seek immediate medical attention.
