Ear Piercing Q&A
Why Choose Mid City Pediatrics for Ear Piercing?

Advantages of the Blomdahl Medical Ear Piercing System?
- Single-use, disposable cassettes eliminate the risk of cross-contamination.

- Fixed stud earring backings and longer posts promote healing and prevent loosening.
- Wider posts reduce skin damage when changing earrings.
- Detailed aftercare instructions ensure a healthy, infection-free healing process.
What is the recommended age for ear piercing?
Ear piercing, performed by our physicians, is safe at any age but recommended after 2 months of age (following the 2-month vaccinations). The physician will assess your child’s ear development before the procedure.
How is Medical Ear Piercing Performed?
After disinfecting the ears, our physician consults with you and your child to determine the precise piercing location. Using the state-of-the-art piercing gun to create the holes, it takes just a fraction of a second to insert a pair of hypo-allergenic medical-grade plastic earrings, and your child is all set.
Blomdahl offers a diverse range of earrings to ensure stylish options suitable for everyone. Call Mid City Pediatrics at 318-221-2225 to schedule your child’s appointment today!
