Piercing Types

Bioplast and piercings: safely to the hospital without worries Are you having an MRI or surgery soon and are you wearing a piercing? You may be wondering: should my piercing come out, and how do I do that safely, without the hole closing or getting irritated? Why metal piercings are often not allowed During medical examinations such as an MRI, it is usually mandatory to remove metal jewelry. Metals can disrupt the magnetic field of the MRI or even be dangerous. Jewelry is also often prohibited during operations, for reasons of sterility and safety. All Perfectly Pierced: No Metal Piercings During an MRI Bioplast as a temporary alternative Fortunately, there is a safe solution: B ioplast . This flexible, skin-friendly plastic contains no metal and is virtually invisible on MRI images. As a result, it is approved in many cases as a temporary piece of jewelry during medical procedures. Please note: the hospital ultimately decides whether bioplast is permitted, so always discuss this with your doctor or healthcare provider in advance. Bioplast is ideal if you are temporarily not allowed to wear your piercing with metal, without the risk of the canal closing. But only replace your jewelry when your piercing is fully healed , or have it done professionally by an experienced piercer. This prevents damage to your skin or scar tissue. Easily plan your appointment here . What should you pay attention to? Always consult your doctor to determine whether Bioplast is permitted during your treatment. Replace your jewelry a few days before your appointment so that your body can get used to it. Never leave your piercing empty : the canal can quickly close up, even in older piercings. Are you in doubt? Contact your piercer or attending physician for tailored advice. Don't forget to exchange it back After your treatment, it is important not to continue wearing Bioplast for too long. Bioplast is intended as a temporary solution and is less suitable for long-term wear. Especially with piercings that have not yet healed sufficiently, it is important to switch back to a high-quality piece of jewelry in time, such as titanium or 14k gold. This prevents irritation, discoloration or relapse in the healing process. In our studio we are happy to help you to safely and sterilely place your original jewelry back. Therefore make an appointment in time, then we will ensure together that your piercing stays healthy and heals nicely. Want to know more about piercings and care?
