A clear process, from anatomy evaluation to healing recommendations.

We assess the cartilage fold and determine if the anatomy is suitable.

What you need to know before a Daith Piercing.
Positioning, anatomy, and care directly influence comfort and healing.
The inner fold must be sufficiently pronounced.
Not every ear allows correct positioning. The depth of the fold and cartilage thickness are evaluated beforehand.
The initial shape is chosen for healing.
The hoop or curved barbell is chosen based on anatomy and the space needed for initial inflammation.
Cartilage heals slowly.
Two months is an approximate estimate; complete stabilisation can take between 3 and 6 months or longer.
Headphones can irritate the area.
In-ear headphones, sleeping on that side, and constant pressure can prolong healing.
It is not a medical treatment.
There is no conclusive scientific evidence that the Daith piercing treats or prevents migraines.
Jewellery is not changed prematurely.
Changing before the canal stabilises can cause irritation, swelling, or delayed healing.
Daith piercing made according to anatomy.
The Daith piercing is made in the inner fold of the ear cartilage, above the ear canal.
The thickness of the cartilage, the depth of the fold, and the available space influence the positioning and type of suitable jewellery.
Daith jewellery
For this type of piercing, hoops or curved barbells are frequently used, chosen according to anatomy and initial inflammation.
After the area stabilises, the jewellery can be changed to a finer model, a minimalist hoop, or a piece with crystals.
Healing of the Daith piercing
The approximate period is about two months, but complete cartilage healing can take between 3 and 6 months.
During this time, it is important to avoid pressure, sleeping on the side with the piercing, and premature jewellery changes.
Some people choose the Daith piercing for supposed effects on migraines, but its effectiveness is not scientifically proven. The Daith piercing does not replace medical evaluation or recommended treatment.
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.
