At Home Piercing Repair Treatment
Piercing repairs, whether they are in the nose, lip, eyebrow, earlobe, belly button (umbilical) or anywhere else on the body, are performed when the hole has become stretched, ripped, torn or simply when the piercing is no longer wanted and the jewellery item has been removed.
The Cosmetic Image Clinics DIY Piercing Repair Kit includes TCA Acid and directions for application to repair piercings in the comfort of your own home. The risks are minimal if you just take extra care. Do not allow the acid solution to spill on your skin, do not inject it, and do not apply it close to the eye area.
