Tragus piercing
DESCRIPTION
A Tragus piercing is placed through the small, prominent cartilage projection located in front of the entrance to the ear canal.
This cartilage partly covers the ear canal, making it easy to identify: if you run your finger along the front of your ear, you will find the small cartilage “flap” directly beside the ear canal where a Tragus piercing is placed.
The Tragus is one of the most popular ear piercings because it is small and elegant while remaining highly visible. A subtle piece of jewellery creates a discreet look, while a more decorative piece adds character. Once fully healed, it can also be worn with a hoop and combined with other ear piercings as part of harmonious ear styling.
As the size, shape, and thickness of the Tragus vary from person to person, our piercers assess your individual anatomy before the procedure. They will help determine the ideal placement and select the appropriate premium titanium starter jewellery.

CARE
The healing time for a Tragus piercing is approximately 2–4 months.
For a smooth healing process, please follow these guidelines:
- Do not go swimming, use a sauna, or visit a tanning salon for the first two weeks after getting pierced.
- Until fully healed, do not remove, change, or rotate the jewellery, and do not treat the piercing with alcohol-based products.
- Always wash your hands thoroughly before caring for a fresh piercing.
- Use an alcohol-free disinfectant and an anti-inflammatory aftercare product twice daily.
- Every 2–3 days, apply a sterile 0.9% saline compress for approximately 10 minutes. This supports healing and helps remove dried blood and discharge. If necessary, use a sterile cotton swab or sterile gauze.
- Do not sleep on the jewellery until the piercing has fully healed. Make sure that nothing puts pressure on or irritates it, such as a hat or headphones. Keep any objects that regularly come into contact with the piercing clean as well.
- If a healed piercing later becomes inflamed, consult a professional to discuss the appropriate treatment and whether a jewellery change may be necessary. Do not postpone this for several days—prompt care makes the issue easier to treat.
- If you have any questions or notice anything unusual during healing, contact us immediately.
