Why would someone choose to do the piercing of their choice with a needle and not with a piercing gun?
The piercing gun creates the hole by applying a lot of pressure. This means that the piercing is done directly with the earring pressing it instantly into the skin. The butterfly earring is a certain size, this results in it pressing on the skin and it doesn’t let the skin breath in order to heal properly. So inflammations and swellings inside the skin (bump) often may develop. In addition, the piercing gun is not sterilized, it is simply disinfected, this means that not all the germs that are probably present are killed, therefore there is a high possibility that the piercing will create inflammations and even carry transmitted diseases (hepatitis, HIV, etc.)
A needle on the other hand is a specially designed medical tool that is made to pierce the skin, is packaged sterile and is disposable. The needle pierces with great detail and respect for the body. There is no instant pressure and it is completely friendly for the skin. After the piercing, the appropriate titanium jewelry is placed to reduce the possibility of allergies or irritation. All tools (tweezers, earrings, etc.) are completely sterilized before the process of the piercing.
The initial piece of jewelry that is placed is quite large in order not to put pressure the skin in case of swelling and therefore to allow the healing process to take place properly. A piercer has been properly trained and has received the necessary knowledge of anatomy, first aid, healing, wound care so that he can perform a piercing in the correct and healthy way.
The piercing gun in most countries is already banned by law.
We respect, love and take care of ourselves! Be careful of who you trust your body to!
