Service price

What to expect
A calm, methodical appointment.
- 01
We only stretch piercings that are fully healed and have rested at their current gauge.
- 02
Single-gauge increments using inert, polished implant-grade tapers.
- 03
We will refuse to over-stretch — tissue health comes before timeline.
- 04
Includes consultation and assessment of your current piercing.
Aftercare
Less is more.
We give every client a simple, APP-aligned aftercare routine. No twisting jewelry, no harsh cleansers.
- Rest the new gauge for several weeks before considering the next step.
- Daily saline rinse and gentle massage with a fragrance-free oil after the first week.
- Return for assessment before any further stretch.
Common Questions
Questions, answered honestly.
- How much is the jewelry?
- Jewelry is priced separately from the service. Implant-grade ASTM F-136 titanium studs and clickers start around $30. Nickel-free 14k and 18k solid gold ranges from $80 to $300+. Selected BVLA solid gold ends are available for healed piercings.
- What is the jewelry made of?
- Every fresh piercing is installed with either implant-grade titanium (ASTM F-136) or nickel-free 14k or 18k solid gold. We do not use surgical steel, plated metals, or unknown alloys.
- Can I bring my own jewelry?
- Yes — if it meets Association of Professional Piercers safety standards. We will inspect the piece first. We will not install jewelry of unknown material or quality.
- Do you use a gun or a needle?
- Sterile single-use needles only. Never a piercing gun. Piercing guns can shatter cartilage, cannot be sterilized to a safe standard, and force blunt jewelry through tissue.
- How painful is a nose piercing?
- A quick sharp pinch for two to three seconds. Most clients rate the sensation around 3/10. Septum and high nostril piercings can feel slightly more intense, though septum is over almost immediately.
