The Piercing Device I Use & How it Works

At Piercings by Jaclyn RN, your safety and comfort come first. That’s why I use the Inverness Medical-Grade Piercing System—a quiet, sterile, and FDA-approved system trusted by medical professionals.

Why Inverness?

Sealed, Sterile Earring Capsules

Each earring is pre-sterilized in a fully enclosed capsule, so nothing touches your ear except the sterile earring and back—helping prevent contamination.

Gentle, Hand-Pressured System

No spring-loaded guns here. The Inverness system uses hand pressure for a quiet, precise, and less traumatic experience—ideal for all ages.

Minimal Pain & Swelling

Designed to reduce discomfort, making it a safe option for infants, children, and adults.

Hypoallergenic Earrings Included

Choose from nickel-free, medical-grade titanium or 14K gold—perfect for sensitive ears.

exclusive earring back design

The exclusive earring backs are just as important as the piercing itself. The Inverness Safety Back™ is specially designed to provide a secure, comfortable, and hygienic healing experience.

Smooth, secure, and airy backs

Unlike traditional butterfly backs, Inverness Safety Backs™ lock gently into place and allow air circulation to aid healing. They’re designed to lock in place, reducing the risk of earrings falling out while still being comfortable enough for everyday wear.

The Bottom Line

This sterile, medical-grade process makes ear piercing safe, clean, and comfortable. It's far superior to traditional mall piercing guns.
