How do you prepare yourself for a cartilage piercing?
ThtUniqueKorean
just don't think about it too much! the more you think about it, the more you'll freak yourself out. its not as bad as you think its going to be! i did mine myself....if i can shove a needle through my ear and come out fine then I'm sure that getting it done proffesionally isn't anything to worry about. just go and do it!

∙ 12y agoThere is no way to not make a cartilage piercing hurt at all! However you can do certain things like do NOT get needles to pierce your cartilage, get guns. Also, to make it quick and semi-painfree get both cartilage piercing's done at once! One person with a piercing gun on each side of you(if you are getting both ears pierced in the cartilage.) If not, it is good to have experience with ear piercings since cartilage piercings are indeed thick cartilage and is notoriously known as painful because of this. However, It is beneficial to know what a regular lobe piercing feels like, maybe even a tragus piercing to prepare yourself for this. In my opinion( although i had my lobes and second to lobes piercings done) the cartilage piercings are not extremely painful. On a scale from 1-10, the pain level is about a 5-6. :) good luck!

Is bleeding during cartilage piercing normal?
A little bleeding is to be expected with cartilage piercings, the incision in the cartilage needs to be larger than the jewellery gauge going into the piercing, this is to allow the skin to heal between the jewellery and the cartilage. Excessive bleeding is an indication your piercer didn't candle the cartilage before doing the piercing to see where the veins are located on both sides of the cartilage.
