Ear Piercing FAQs
Why Is The Minimum Age 6 Months For Baby Ear Piercing?
Our clinical team prefers waiting until infants are at least 6 months of age. At this stage, the earlobes have developed sufficient size for precise placement, and the child has received their initial routine childhood immunisations.
Is ear piercing at 1 Health safe?
Yes — our trained clinicians use sterile techniques and hypoallergenic studs or rings to ensure a comfortable, hygienic experience. We take every care to make the process quick and reassuring.
How much does ear piercing cost?
Pricing starts from $55 through to $85, depending on your choice of stud or ring.
What should I expect during an ear piercing appointment?
During the appointment, you’ll choose from a selection of hypoallergenic studs or rings, receive a full explanation of the process, experience the piercing, and get clear aftercare instructions. Parents or guardians must accompany children under 16.
