Among the types of piercing, the safest and most common is piercing the earlobes: it is done even for small children. And doctors call the simplest and most reliable way to carry out the procedure a puncture using a special gun, which fixes the lobe, fires an instant shot, which reduces the degree of pain, and immediately places a stud earring. After some time, the need arises to replace the decoration, and here the question arises - how to do this correctly?
When and how to remove medical studs after piercing with a gun?
First of all, you need to figure out how long the first earrings should be worn. They are made from medical steel, which is not an allergen, making it preferable for an open wound than any precious metal or jewelry. From a safety standpoint, you need to wear these nails until the puncture site has completely healed, so this period varies from person to person - some people can easily remove them after 3 weeks, while others have to wear them for 1.5-2 months, or even six months.
- You can determine the condition of the puncture by slightly moving the earring in your ear. If ichor (or blood) comes out, it has not yet healed.
However, there is one important nuance: from the first day until the moment of complete healing, the pierced channel releases blood, one way or another, encountering dirt in the air. From it may appear ichor, and sometimes pus. No matter how well you take care of the puncture site, the slightest mistake leads to the fact that all the released substances begin to accumulate on the stem of the stud; upon contact with air they decompose, and if they are not removed, everything will fall back, which will lead to suppuration. For this reason, doctors advise that after 2-3 weeks you must remove the carnation earrings, treat them with alcohol and put them back. And here the question of how to do this also becomes relevant.
When putting back stud earrings, do not try to press the clasp tightly to your earlobe: leave a small distance. It should sit tightly on the rod, at risk, but nothing more.
It would seem that what could be easier than removing an earring from your ear? In fact, this statement is not entirely true; sometimes such a simple operation causes a lot of discomfort, and sometimes ends in complete failure.
Most often the question arises, how to remove medical? After all, it is this kind of jewelry that is inserted into the ear immediately after the puncture in the salon. Upon completion of the cosmetic procedure, the carnations are worn for no more than 2 months, ideally until the wound heals, usually this happens within 3-4 weeks. After healing, these earrings can be replaced with any other model suitable for you.
Once you have decided that it is time to get rid of the studs, wash your hands thoroughly and prepare peroxide to disinfect the piercing. Using two fingers of one hand, secure the decoration from the outside; with the other hand, grab the latch and gently but forcefully pull it towards you. After the manipulations, generously moisten the ear with an anti-inflammatory agent. How to remove stud earrings if the usual method does not work? You should not experiment at home; you should trust your health only to professionals. Contact the salon where you had your piercing, they will definitely help you solve the problem. If this is not possible, then try to look into the regional traumatology department; they have extensive experience in helping in such situations.
No less often the question arises of how to remove earrings with an English lock, because such fastening is one of the most common. First you need to determine what such a castle is. So, the shackle is placed at the piercing site and connected to the hole in the earring using a small spring mechanism. If you hear a slight click, your jewelry is securely closed. The lock is really very strong, so if you cannot remove it, try to go to a traumatology center or a trusted salon. By the way, before you panic, you should remember a simple rule: the English lock opens from top to bottom, that is, you need to pull the most protruding part towards your shoulders, the one in which the hole is located.
How to remove an earring from your ear at home? There are many options here, most of which are quite traumatic. When carrying out any manipulations on your own, do not forget to follow the rules of hygiene, wash your hands and treat your earlobe. If you cannot cope on your own and do not want to visit specialists, you can invite relatives or friends to carry out this procedure. Among the possible auxiliary devices, tweezers are most often used.

Piercing of the earlobes in the salon is usually carried out with a gun into which a special sterile stud earring is inserted. Since the machine fastens the clasp very tightly during the procedure, it is not always easy to remove it when it comes time to change the jewelry.
If we compare studs with earrings with an English lock, then in both cases the products close in two clicks, making it possible to adjust the tightness of the earring to the earlobe, but in the second case it is much easier to remove the jewelry due to the movable part. In the first case, it is not always possible to cope with this task manually. Everyone who has ever encountered this problem has wondered how to remove a stud earring after a piercing with a gun, so as not to injure the ear.
When it comes time to remove medical earrings from your ears, you should understand that the puncture site needs careful handling after recent healing, you need to act as carefully as possible. Without aids, it is not always possible to cope without damaging the ear, so at first you can manually just move the clasp a little, without trying to remove it completely.
Next, you should prepare cotton pads and healing hygiene products to care for the puncture site (hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, chlorhexidine), and you will also need scissors with rounded ends, which should fit into the holes of the fastener.
Before starting the procedure, it is necessary to treat the earlobe, hands and scissors. Holding the earring by the stud itself, slightly open the scissors, the ends of which are inside the clasp, and pull it towards you.
You can also use regular eyebrow tweezers with non-pointed ends. With their help, you will be able to firmly hold the fastener and, just like in the first case, hold the stud itself and pull it towards you.
It is worth noting that it is not recommended to remove the jewelry until the puncture has completely healed. The tissue around the puncture should not be swollen; this will make the removal process easier and will not cause unnecessary discomfort. After finishing, immediately treat the earlobe again and it is advisable to let it rest for at least an hour, only after that select a new earring.
When it comes time to choose accessories, you should remember that new piercings require attention and care. You should not opt for a second pair of silver jewelry, as this material oxidizes and can harm fresh holes. Products made from low-quality gold-plated materials, jewelry, are strictly not recommended.
If we talk about the diameter of the base of the earring, then you should not take very thin ones, since fresh channels quickly become overgrown and in the future difficulties may arise with earrings of a different thickness. Of the fasteners, it is better to give preference to silicone ones, since they are easy to use, soft to the touch, and removing them will not be difficult.
Features of removing medical stud earrings from a child
You can’t explain to your baby why you should never move during a relatively painful procedure. To prevent his restless fidgeting from leading to new damage to the earlobe, do the following (choose 1 of the suggested options):
- Contact the salon and ask to remove the earring. If the child is very sensitive, it makes sense to resort to painkillers. Its application will not cause harm, since it does not have the form of injections or tablets, but comes in the form of a spray.
- Carry out the manipulation yourself, choosing the right moment. Ideal option: the child is fast asleep and does not react to touching himself.
- Before removing, be sure to make sure that there are no visible signs of suppuration. Manipulating an unhealed wound will definitely wake up the baby.
What to do if difficulties arise?
It may happen that the decoration fits very tightly and does not lend itself to any influence. In this case, it is better to stop any attempts to do this at home and contact any salon for professional help. It is not only people with ear piercings who experience difficulty in removing earrings; it is also quite difficult to remove jewelry from other parts of the body.
For example, for navel piercing, barbells are used, which, despite the fact that they are secured manually by the master, are much more difficult and painful to remove. The clasp of such jewelry is in the form of a ball, which is difficult to grasp due to the fact that it will slip; in such cases, it is also better to seek help from a specialist.
- The healing time for the hole is different for everyone, but with proper care and compliance with all precautions, it is about three weeks.
- Professionals recommend doing piercing with a special machine only in the earlobe. In other places, such as ear cartilage, navel, wings of the nose and lips, it is strictly not recommended. The punctured part may become deformed and healing may take longer.
- After performing such a minor operation as piercing the ears or other parts of the body, it is not recommended to take a very hot bath or visit the sauna and swimming pool for the first time. By steaming the puncture site, the healing process will be long and painful.
- Clean sea water is beneficial for the healing of punctures.
- You should not agree to piercing while your body is recovering from surgery or illness.
- During a session in the salon, the visitor can always request anesthesia.
- There is an opinion that in the earlobe there are more than a hundred active points responsible for hearing, vision and the functioning of internal organs. And if you make an unsuccessful puncture and get into any of them, the functioning of any of these senses may be disrupted. It's just a myth. Of course, these zones really exist, but not in the lobe area.
Using a needle, a special device later appeared, which quickly gained popularity. Today, almost everyone who wants to decorate their ears with earrings makes holes using this very “gun”. How to remove stud earrings after a piercing?
Precautionary measures
It is recommended to pierce your ears in early autumn.
After ear piercing has been performed using a specialized gun, to prevent complications, precautions must be taken, which include the following:
- After the puncture, it is forbidden to wash your hair for 7 days. Swimming pools and open bodies of water are contraindicated for the next 3 weeks after the puncture.
- It is not advisable to do ear piercing immediately after a cold or surgery, since the immune system is weakened - healing will take a longer period, and the risks of infection of fresh piercings increase.
- It is not advisable to pierce your ears during the cold season - the likelihood of hypothermia and permanent injury to the developing canals is too high. It is also not recommended in hot weather, as increased sweating increases the likelihood of wound infection.
- Immediately after the piercing and for 1 week, special attention must be paid to the tightness of the stud clasp to the earlobe. If it fits tightly or is pressed into the fabric, then you need to remove such decoration.
When the studs used to pierce the ear are removed, it is necessary to observe the rules of hygiene, as well as be careful in the process of removing the jewelry - the likelihood of damaging newly healed holes is extremely high. If you can’t remove the studs yourself, you can go to the nearest piercing or cosmetology salon - a specialist will quickly, carefully and painlessly remove the jewelry.

The earring is placed in a special device, often called a “gun”. Then, with its help, piercing is carried out, followed by fixing the earring with a lock on the opposite side of the earlobe.
When and how to remove stud earrings? Before removal, some time must pass after the puncture so that the canal can heal completely. This usually takes up to one and a half months.
How long can you wear your first earrings without taking them off?
The medical material from which the first ear piercing earrings were made does not differ in appearance from precious metals. But it is precisely this that protects the wound in the lobe from inflammation and is suitable for all people of any age. Whereas a person may be allergic to gold or silver.
Not only the material is important, but also the correct type of fastener. The ease of removing jewelry after a piercing depends on its type.
There are three types of stud latches:
- thread - the second part of the earring is screwed onto the base like a screw;
- silicone retainer - glides smoothly along the body of the jewelry, but can fly off during wear;
- classic lock - snaps tightly at a certain level, it is most often chosen for the first earrings in life.

- During the first weeks, it is advisable to sleep on your back so that there is no pressure from the earrings on the wound.

- Do not forget to treat the puncture area with Chlorhexidine 2-3 times a day, and rotate the earring in the canal once a day.
- If you do not plan to wear earrings constantly, after the canal has healed, put on studs for half an hour to an hour every day - this will prevent it from completely overgrowing.
- In case of inflammation of the canal, you must contact the master who did the piercing or a doctor.
- Before putting on new earrings, even if several months have passed since the piercing, be sure to treat them with alcohol and clean the channel.
