Clear from the start.
Before the procedure, the central area of the cartilage, tissue thickness, and suitable positioning are evaluated.
Central. Visible. Personal.
Positioning in the centre of the ear provides a clear visual point, suitable for both discreet jewellery and more prominent designs.
In the centre of the cartilage.
It is made in the concave and wide area in the middle of the ear, close to the ear canal.
From stud to hoop.
After healing, you can choose studs, barbells, hoops or designs with crystals.
Clear visual impact.
It combines very well with Helix, Flat, Tragus or other ear piercings.
A central point. A visible effect.
The positioning is determined according to the shape of the ear, cartilage thickness and the type of jewellery desired.
After the area stabilises, you can opt for a minimalist stud, a barbell or a hoop that surrounds the edge of the ear.
How it is done
A clear process, from anatomy evaluation to healing recommendations.
Consultation.
We assess the central area of the ear and establish the suitable position.
Preparation.
The area is cleaned, disinfected, and marked before the procedure.
Piercing.
The piercing is performed with sterile instruments and individual consumables.
Aftercare
You receive instructions for cleaning and changing the jewellery.
What you need to know before a Conch Piercing.
Positioning, anatomy and type of jewellery influence both appearance and healing.
Inner Conch.
It is made in the inner concave area of the cartilage and often suits a stud or barbell.
Outer Conch.
It is placed closer to the outer edge of the ear and can later allow a customised hoop.
Not every ear allows every type of jewellery.
Cartilage thickness, area width and angle influence the position and size of the jewellery.
Cartilage heals slowly.
The first 30 days are only the initial stage. Complete healing can take between 3 and 9 months.
Headphones can delay healing.
Constant pressure, in-ear headphones and sleeping on that side can irritate the canal.
The hoop is not always the initial choice.
The starter jewellery is chosen according to anatomy and the space needed for inflammation.
Conch Piercing made according to anatomy.
The Conch piercing is made in the concave and central area of the ear cartilage.
The size of the area, cartilage thickness, and ear shape influence positioning and the type of suitable jewellery.
Conch Jewellery
For this type of piercing, studs or barbells are frequently used at first, chosen according to anatomy and initial inflammation.
After the area stabilises, the jewellery can be changed to a finer model, a piece with crystals or a hoop adapted to the ear size.
Healing of the Conch piercing
The initial period is about 30 days, but complete cartilage healing can take between 3 and 9 months.
During this time, it is important to avoid pressure, sleeping on the side with the piercing, and premature jewellery changes.
Careful. Consistent.
Healing also depends on how the area is cared for after the procedure.
What you should do.
- Clean the area twice a day with sterile saline solution.
- Wash your hands before touching the piercing.
- Dry the area by gentle dabbing.
- Respect the recommended period before changing the jewellery.
- Contact the salon if unusual changes appear.
What you should avoid.
- Do not rotate or forcibly move the jewellery.
- Do not use alcohol, spirits, or hydrogen peroxide.
- Do not sleep on the side with the piercing.
- Avoid headphones and objects that press on the area.
- Don't change the jewellery too early.
