Too Old to Get a Piercing? Body Piercing Basics EP89

In the 89th episode in our Youtube series Body Piercing Basics, DaVo covers if you are too old to get a new piercing.

Show Notes:

Reasons for getting pierced when you are older:

• More established in your career, socially and financially

• More access to professionally trained piercers

• You are more responsible and have a better understanding of how your body heals

• Wisdom, you have gotten to the point where what others think doesn’t matter

• You are going through a life-changing period.

• Piercing has become more socially acceptable

• You have just discovered Piercing

Is there any concerns:

• Your health can affect healing

• You might see a longer healing period

• You may have preexisting health conditions that may affect healing and the body’s blood clotting

• You may use a medication that could cause issues

Is this a mid-life crisis?

Should you take additional precautions?

• If you have any preexisting health issues that affects the body’s ability to heal or blood clotting issue, discuss this with your doctor

• Also any medications

• Check with your employer about any dress codes
