Piercing Aftercare Guide — Las Vegas

Aftercare is not one list for every placement — but the principles are the same: sterile saline, hands off, downsizing on schedule, and desert-aware choices.

Clean with sterile saline mist 1–2 times daily. No alcohol, peroxide, or tea tree oil unless your piercer tells you otherwise in a check-in.

Vegas adds pool season, dust storms, and dry crusties that tighten overnight. Our desert piercing aftercare guide goes deeper on swimming, hot tubs, and sunscreen.
