What happens during medical ear piercing?

During medical ear piercing at Yuli MD Pediatrics, your child sits in a comfortable, relaxing chair or on your lap — whichever you prefer. Dr. Yuli cleans and disinfects your child’s ears, uses sterile equipment to puncture the skin and places quality, medical-grade earrings in their ears. All of the earrings Dr. Yuli uses contain skin-friendly materials and are hypoallergenic.  

The procedure takes just a second to complete. Dr. Yuli makes your child's experience stress-free, helping them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Medical ear piercing with Dr. Yuli is well-tolerated by babies, children, and teens, and there’s no downtime afterward.

What should I expect after a medical ear piercing?

Your child may feel slight discomfort during the piercing and have redness at the site of the piercing for a short time. However, they can resume a normal daily routine immediately afterward. It’s important to follow Dr. Yuli’s post-piercing instructions to prevent infection.

Apply ointment to the treated areas as directed. Always wash your hands before touching the earrings, twist them regularly during the healing process, and avoid swimming in lakes, rivers, hot tubs, and pools until your child’s ears fully heal.

After healing is complete, switch to another set of earrings if you’d like to. Ask Dr. Yuli about the safest earrings for children, especially if your child is a baby or very young.

Call Dr. Yuli if your child develops signs of an infection or if you have concerns or questions during the healing process.
