| Q. #1 |
Why is this better than getting ears pierced at the mall? |
| A. |
First, the Coren® earpiercing™ system is the safest possible ear piercing method. Everything that touches your earlobe comes in sealed, sterile, laboratory-tested packages that are opened by you. Nothing has been “wiped off” after a previous customer, then used on you. The earpiercer™ itself comes from the factory pre-loaded with the stud of your choice, and is never re-used.
Second, even with shipping included, you pay less and get a better quality stud. To ensure proper healing, we use only 24K gold plating; not 18K, not 14K.
Third, you use our products in the comfort and privacy of the location you choose, at the time you choose. |

| Q. #2 |
What does it feel like? Does it hurt? |
| A. |
No, it’s not painful, because the actual piercing happens in an instant. You couldn't do it slowly, even if you wanted to! |
| |
| Q. #3 |
How old should I be? |
| A. |
Our products are suitable for all ages. In most states, minors need parental consent. |
| |
| Q. #4 |
Do I need the optional Handle? |
| A. |
We recommend it for first-time users and for self-application. Many experienced doctors use it, too. |
| |
| Q. #5 |
This is new to me, how can I be sure of getting perfect results? |
| A. |
Just follow the simple step-by-step instructions. They are always available here on our website, and a printed copy is shipped with your order. Be sure to protect your newly-pierced ears by following the simple aftercare rules, which also come with your earpiercers™. |
| |
| Q. #6 |
Can I use the earpiercer to pierce cartilage? |
| A. |
Yes; many buyers use their earpiercersTM that way. Note: Any method you choose for cartilage piercing may involve some discomfort and a longer healing time. We promote the earpiercerTM "for earlobes only", when used at home, because earlobes are painless and heal so quickly. |
| |
| Q. #7 |
How long before I can use other earrings? |
| A. |
Usually six weeks; then switch to a good-quality item of your choice. |
