Medical Ear Piercing

Medical ear piercing is available for those from two months of age through adulthood. A pediatrician performs the piercing in a comfortable setting using the Blomdahl Medical Ear Piercing system. Milestone has used this system for more than 12 years.

What to expect:

1. Numbing cream is applied to the ear lobes

2. Placement is carefully marked and reviewed

3. The skin is cleaned before piercing

4. Sterile, hypoallergenic piercing studs are used

5. Families can choose from medical grade plastic and titanium options

6. Printed aftercare instructions are provided

The needle sharp piercing studs are designed to reduce unnecessary tissue trauma and allow space for healing. The actual piercing is quick and usually feels like pressure or a brief pinch.

Aftercare

The special piercing studs should remain in place for 6-8 weeks before being replaced with good quality regular earrings. An earring should remain in the piercing each day during the first year to reduce the risk of the closing. There are no swimming or activity restrictions following the piercing.

Pricing and Scheduling

The current price is $115 for up to two ears and includes the piercing studs, with more than 15 options available. Milestone members schedule directly with their pediatrician. Nonmembers receive the service at the Colorado Springs office near Interstate 25 and Woodmen Road. Families may also ask about an in home piercing session for groups of 5 or more people.
