What to know about choosing jewelry

How a piercing heals depends on the jewelry as much as how it looks. For a new piercing, smooth jewelry made of body-safe, implant-grade material is usually preferred; cheap, low-quality metals can raise the risk of allergy and inflammation. Switching to a fancier design once healing is complete can be both safer and more economical. Choosing a slightly longer first piece to allow for swelling is common practice; talk it through with the piercer. Do not try to take the jewelry out and put it back in yourself during the first weeks.
