Ear Piercing

Here at Seaview Pharmacy we offer an ear piercing service. This service is provided for anyone over the age of 12 months. Our trained staff use an automatic ear piercing gun to pierce our customer’s ears. We offer piercing to the ear lobe only, no other part of the body or ear. We offer an extensive range of earrings to choose from when you come to get your ears pierced.

Care and management advice

How can I manage my ear after they have been pierced and prevent infection? Remember that once you have your ear pierced, care and management of the piercing is very important. Some tips to care for newly pierced ears include:

• Avoid touching the ears as much as possible
• Do not remove the studs from your ears for 6-8 weeks after the piercing is done
• Spray ear lobes with an antiseptic spray at least twice a day
• After cleansing the ear, rotate the earrings one to two times and do not try to move the earrings when they are dry
• Be aware of any signs of excessive redness, irritation, itchiness or soreness. If these symptoms appear, consult with your Doctor or Pharmacist
