downsize/check up/removal appointment
DORJE APPOINTMENTS
If you are concerned about a piercing we did or need to schedule a jewelry removal for a procedure, please call the studio at 585-775-9182.
This appointment type is typically shorter at 15 minutes and allows time for you to work with a piercer to downsize your piercing or schedule a checkup or removal. This appointment does not allow for time to work with our jewelry specialists.
Shortening the length of the post on your new piercings (Downsizing) is crucial — It prevents your piercing angles from shifting over time and can assist in preventing irritation caused by the excess length of your post once swelling has subsided.
We can also remove your jewelry and insert non-metal retainers in your piercings for an MRI or other procedures. Retainers are easily removed/inserted on your own and great for short-term wear!
We are also more than happy to take a look at any piercing you have to ensure you are on the right track for optimal healing.
We work by appointment only and correspond via email.
Please read more information and considerations below to be better prepared for your appointment.
