Did you have your Ears Pierced from a kiosk
or similar type of accessory store that offers
Ear Piercing in unsanitary or questionable conditions?
This can often lead to problems with the successful healing of an ear piercing form the start.
Lost an Earring or Can’t Wear Earrings Anymore?
Did your earring fall out shortly after an initial ear piercing—and you couldn’t get it back in?
Did you try to change earrings too soon, only to find they wouldn’t reinsert? Did you remove your earrings for work, sports, or a special event and never put them back in?
Have earrings always felt uncomfortable, irritating, or difficult to wear?
You are not alone—and your ear piercings may not be gone.
Don’t Re-Pierce Old Ear Piercings. Reopen Them.
Ears previously pierced but now seem closed? In most cases, those piercings can be safely reopened.
At Baby Ear Piercing, we specialize in professional ear piercing reopening services—not unnecessary re-piercing.
Reopening an Ear Piercing
During your service visit, we will:
Review your ear piercing history (as much as you can recall)
Assess ear anatomy, tissue condition, and closure level
Identify contributing factors such as jewelry type, metals, sensitivities, or aftercare
Explain the safest and most effective solution for wearing earrings again
Many guests are surprised to learn they can wear earrings again—even if they haven’t worn them for years…
or even decades,. Yes—sometimes even 50 years later.
High Success Rate. Gentle, Professional Care.
Our ear piercing reopening success rate is currently approximately 98% positive.
Chances are, your ear piercings can be safely reopened without creating new trauma to the ear
Why Reopen Instead of Re-Pierce?
Re-piercing unnecessarily can:
Create scar tissue
Misalign original placement
Increase irritation and healing time
Introduce avoidable risk
Our philosophy is simple:👉 DON’T RE-PIERCE. REOPEN.
