If you want to needlessly irritate it and dry it out, sure. But in all seriousness, no, don't use this on the site. The best thing to use on virtually all fresh piercings that you can make at home for little money, use sea salt soaks. For this, you will mix a ¼ Teaspoon of non-iodized Sea Salt with 8oz. of, as warm to hot as you can stand it within reason, distilled water. The optimal time to do this is right after a hot shower at twice a day for the initial healing time of the piercing. You don't want to over clean the site, and you don't want to under clean it either. You will mix this solution in a one time use disposable cup and will then "cup" the cup over the piercing site and hold it firm to the skin, making a seal, and let it just soak the site for about 15 minutes. The warm to hot water mixed with the sea salt makes a great astringent which is vastly better for you than trying to use such things as peroxide and the like. After the 15 minute soak, take a clean Q-tip and gently wipe away the softened lymphatic fluid that will most likely be accumulated at the fistula and harden on the rod. Don't use the same side of the swab for both sides of the entrance points, and when done, rinse the area with warm water and pat dry the site.
Yes
It is not recommended to clean a Monroe piercing with hydrogen peroxide as it can be too harsh and may slow down the healing process. It is better to use a saline solution or gentle soap and water to clean the piercing.
A new body piercing should be cleaned regularly. It should be kept dry, and you should avoid playing with it too much. You can buy piercing cleaner in stores, or you can use first aid alcohol. To clean a naval piercing, you should use one of the options above. A good brand is H2Ocean piercing cleanser. If the naval is infected, there are many steps to take. Soak with warm water on a cloth until it is not hot anymore. Use hydrogen peroxide to drain the infections, but you should not use it often becuase it will freeze the cells and complicate the healing process.
No, it is not recommended to clean a lip piercing with hydrogen peroxide as it can be too harsh and irritating. It may slow down the healing process and can also damage the delicate tissues around the piercing. It's better to use a gentle saline solution or a cleaning solution recommended by your piercer.
You do not use Peroxide to clean your ear piercings. Soap and water and leave them alone, you could always read the written aftercare instructions you were provided with by your professional body piercer.
NO ABSOLUTELY NOT. You never want to use peroxide or alcohol on a piercing. Sea Salt Soaks are ideal.
Soap and water is the best thing to clean your body with! You can also use alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or Hibiclens if you want something stronger to clean with.
NO!!!! you should use salt sea spray from a local piercing shop and drench the hole with it
No, when I got my belly button pierced my piercer told me specifically not to use peroxide or alcohol on the piercing. If peroxide or alcohol gets on it, it'll be fine but it dries out your skin which isn't good for healing or cleaning. Use soapy warm water and a sea salt water mixture to throughly clean your piercing, that's what I used, as I was following my piercer's instructions. I've had my piercing for almost 7 months and I've never had a problem with it.
Hydrogen Peroxide generated oxygen when it bubbles, this can damage the new tissue your body is trying to form to make up the piercing. There is no need to use this or alcohol on any piercing. Simply rinsing the piercing daily in the shower under warm running water and moving the jewellery while doing so is plenty to ensure the piercing is clean and healthy.
No, you are only supposed to use soap to clean the piercing. That includes no peroxide, alcohol, etc.
No. That could cause scar tissue to build up. Use antibacterial soap or sea salt & warm water.
