Another risk is that the earring post can become lodged in the earlobe, which can require surgery to remove it. Clean around the front and back of the piercings two to three times a day by spraying saline solution or gently dabbing them with a piece of saline-soaked gauze.

Some employees describe a week’s worth of training and lots of practice, and others say that the piercing gun was thrust into their hands on their first shift.
