REMINDER At Crimson Studio, your safety and results are always top priority. Whether it’s a delicate lobe or a bold cartilage placement, what you put in your body before your appointment can seriously affect the healing process and even the piercing itself. Here’s a full breakdown of what to avoid, why it matters, and what can happen if you don’t.

⸻

What to AVOID Before Piercing:
1.Aspirin
• Why: It’s a blood thinner. It prevents platelets from clumping, making it harder for your body to clot during the piercing.
• Risk: Excessive bleeding, delayed healing.
2. Ibuprofen / NSAIDs (like Advil, Aleve, Motrin)
• Why: These reduce inflammation, but they also impair platelet function.
•Risk: More bleeding during the piercing, and possibly increased bruising.
3. Alcohol (wine, beer, hard liquor)
•Why: Alcohol thins the blood and dehydrates you.
• Risk: Increased bleeding, dizziness, heightened pain sensitivity.
4. Cannabis (smoked, v**ed, or edible)
•Why: While relaxing for some, cannabis can increase heart rate and impair immune function short term.
•Risk: More bleeding, and potentially an exaggerated swelling or delayed healing response.
5. Ni****ne (v**e, ci******es, etc.)
• Why: Ni****ne constricts blood vessels and reduces oxygen delivery to tissue.
• Risk: Poor circulation = slow healing, more risk of infection or keloids.
6. Fish Oil & Omega-3 Supplements
• Why: These are natural blood thinners, just like aspirin.
•Risk: Unexpected bleeding and bruising.
7. Vitamin E (high doses)
•Why: Increases bleeding time.
• Risk: Internal bleeding or clotting issues at the piercing site.
8. Garlic (in supplement or heavy food form) Why: Garlic contains allicin, which affects blood thinning.
• Risk: Again — more bleeding, slower clotting.
9. Fatty Fish (salmon, mackerel) or large amounts of butter
• Why: High omega-3 content = blood thinning.
• Risk: Can compound effects with other thinners.
10. Ginger, Turmeric, Ginkgo Biloba, and Ginseng (Supplements or heavy tea use)

• Why: All of these can act as mild anticoagulants.
• Risk: Bleeding and swelling risk increases if taken with other thinners.

11. Over-the-Counter Cold & Allergy Medications (if they contain ibuprofen or pseudoephedrine)

•Why: Some ingredients have stimulant effects or may interact with vasoconstriction.
•Risk: Increased blood pressure, bleeding, or slowed healing.

12. Certain Prescription Antidepressants (SSRIs like Zoloft, Prozac, etc.)

•Why: These can increase bleeding tendencies in some people.
•Note: NEVER stop prescriptions for a piercing. But inform your piercer if you’re on them, so aftercare can be adjusted.

⸻

How Long Should You Avoid These?

Ideally, stop these substances 24–48 hours before your appointment (or longer if it’s a supplement like fish oil that stays in your system).
Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before stopping any prescription drugs. Your health comes first!

Why This Matters:

When your body is thinned out even naturally by supplements or herbs piercing becomes harder to control.
•You may bleed more during the piercing, which can increase risk of bruising or rejection.
•Your swelling may worsen, making jewelry uncomfortable.
•Your body may heal slower, and the chance of infection or complications goes up.

We want you to leave Crimson Studio GLOWING, not swollen and stressed.
Please follow these guidelines, ask questions, and be open with your piercer about anything you’ve taken — even if it feels small.

Feel free to DM or text with any questions before your appointment. We’re here to help.
Let’s keep it safe, sexy, and sparkling.

🚨 Important Studio Policy 🚨

If you experience excessive bleeding or pain beyond a normal pinch, it’s a sign your body may not be in the right state for piercing. In this case:

We may pause or cancel the piercing for your safety.
The studio is not responsible for bleeding reactions caused by substances consumed prior to your appointment.

Please plan ahead so you can enjoy your piercing with minimal discomfort and max slay.
