Wait until the wound is completely healed before immersing in water such as pools, lakes, oceans, and streams. All healing times are aproximate as every body heals differently, but the minimum healing time on ear lobes is usually 6 weeks, on cartilage 3 months. The reason for this is to keep bacteria from getting into the wound while it is still healing to help prevent infection.
