Enigma Professional Piercing Studios are proud to be members of the APP (Association of Professional Piercers) , meaning we adhere to the highest industry standards for safety and quality. We never use piercing guns, as they can cause unnecessary trauma to the tissue and increase the risk of complications. Instead, we use sterile, single-use needles for every piercing to ensure precision and minimize discomfort. We use sterile gloves for each piercing (most studios will just use exam gloves to pierce with, which are not meant to touch sterile implements before introducing them to an open wound). Our piercing process is conducted in a meticulously clean environment, and we exclusively use internally threaded or threadless jewelry made from implant-grade materials. Our team of experienced piercers are extensively trained in aseptic technique, sterile glove technique, yearly blood born pathogens training, following all local and industry guidelines to provide you with a safe and luxurious experience.

-
When bringing previously worn jewelry into the studio, please place jewelry in a zip-loc or similar baggy before coming in. Due to our high jewelry quality standards, we only allow previously worn jewelry from Enigma. Please drop off any previously worn jewelry (from Enigma only) the day before your appointment. This allows us time to properly process the jewelry for safe use in a new piercing. Note that we can only re-use ends, not the posts for initial piercings.
-
Mill certificates only confirm the metal type, not sterility or proper handling. Accepting outside jewelry—even with a certificate—is a liability, as we can’t guarantee its safety. To protect your health and our standards, we only allow jewelry from Enigma that we can personally process and sterilize in-house.

The short answer to this; health codes. The reason why we ask clients to refrain from touching their jewelry or piercings in the studio is to keep all surfaces as clean as possible and our clients as safe as possible. Even a healed piercing secretes a small amount of oil and can contain bacteria. At Enigma we are contstantly disinfecting our surfaces. However, we ask you to refrain from touching your piercings or removing your jewelry while inside the studio. We promise we have your health and safety in mind and are in no way trying to offend when we ask this.
