Piercing Prices in Bakırköy
Short answer: The price of a piercing depends on the placement, the material and quality of the jewelry, the piercer's experience and the studio's hygiene standards. You can browse artists and studios that do piercings in Bakırköy in the TattooVerseCo Artists and Studios sections by choosing Bakırköy as the location.
A piercing looks like a quicker job than a tattoo, but its price also depends on many factors. Choosing a place that uses safe, quality jewelry instead of just "the cheap one" directly affects how well it heals.
What determines the price of a piercing
1. Placement
Areas like the earlobe, ear cartilage (helix, tragus, daith and so on), nose, lip, navel and eyebrow call for different techniques and healing times. Cartilage piercings usually need more careful work and a longer healing period.
2. Jewelry material
- Implant-grade titanium: Often chosen for sensitive skin.
- Surgical steel: A common, affordable option; it can cause problems for people sensitive to nickel.
- Gold (good-quality karat): A pricier, long-lasting option.
Because jewelry quality affects healing, it's important to avoid cheap jewelry of unknown material.
3. The piercer and the method
An experienced piercer picks the right spot and angle. Especially on cartilage, piercing with a sterile needle is preferred; piercing guns are generally not recommended for these areas. Asking the artist about their method is a good habit.
4. Hygiene and setting
Sterile, single-use equipment, a clean workspace and aftercare instructions may show up in the price, but they are essential.
5. Jewelry vs. service
Some places quote "procedure + jewelry" together, others list them separately. When comparing quotes, check what's included.
What to watch for when comparing prices
- Is the jewelry included in the price?
- What is the jewelry made of?
- Is there an aftercare solution and follow-up support?
- When can the first piece of jewelry be changed, and how long do you need to wait?
- What information do they give about hygiene and equipment?

Practical tips for getting pierced in Bakırköy
- Proximity matters: You may need to go back in the first weeks for a check-up or a jewelry change. In Bakırköy, the Özgürlük Meydanı metro station and Marmaray (Bakırköy, Ataköy and Florya stops) make short trips easy.
- Right after: Keep a new piercing away from pools, the sea and crowded places. Even on a walk along the coast, only touch it with clean hands.
- Options by neighborhood: There may be different studios around the center, Ataköy and Florya. You can see them all in the Artists and Studios sections with the Bakırköy filter.
Healing and aftercare
A piercing heals like a wound. Depending on the placement, this can take weeks to months. Follow your piercer's cleaning instructions, don't change the jewelry too early and don't touch it with dirty hands. If redness, swelling or discharge gets worse, see a healthcare professional.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a piercing cost in Bakırköy?
There's no fixed figure, since the price varies by placement, jewelry and piercer. You need to get an exact quote from the artist or studio.
Is the jewelry included in the price of a piercing?
Not everywhere. When you get a quote, ask whether the jewelry and the procedure are priced separately or together.
Is it safe to get pierced at the cheapest place?
Price shouldn't be the only criterion. Hygiene, jewelry quality and the piercer's experience matter more.
How long does a piercing take to heal?
It depends on the placement. An earlobe usually heals faster than cartilage. Your piercer will tell you the expected time.
Can I get a tattoo and a piercing at the same place?
Some studios offer both. You can check the services on the studio's profile.
