It sounds like a pretty awful idea... Unless your old piercing just so happens to be magically in the perfect location and at the perfect required angle. Tthe two holes for an industrial have to be PLANNED FOR CAREFULLY and, thus, are generally done at the same time and with an industrial in mind. You can't just play connect the dots with any two piercing holes, or force one existing hole to work with a new one.

When using a piercing gun (such as those they use at Claires) the collapse of your ear cartilage is a possibility. Also, with any piercing, there is the chance of infection if not cleaned properly as instructed by your piercer.
Does Claire's use a gun for cartilage piercings?
A piercing gun should not be used on cartilage as it's more likely to cause damage to the cartilage. Piercing guns should be avoided at all costs due to the multiple health risks. If you want a piercing go to a piercing studio where there are professionally trained piercers who use the correct jewelry and safe tools.

Can you get your cartilage pierced with an ear piercing gun in Missouri?
Yes you can, but it's very unhealthy and painful. The jewelry that they use is unsafe, and guns can never be cleaned properly. Most people that operate guns are taught by a training video or piercing a teddy bear. Use a hollow needle, go to a real piercing shop.
Can you get your industrial pierced if you have your cartilage pierced?
You don't "get your industrial pierced" per se, since no part of the ear is called "industrial". An industrial piercing is just another type of cartilage piercing. Depending on the anatomy of your upper ear, you could potentially have quite a few piercings there, including an industrial and 1 or more helix piercings. If you already have a helix piercing and your piercer says it won't be in the way when s/he adds 2 holes on either side of it and puts in an industrial barbell, then absolutely, you can keep the helix piercing. Or, if the placement works out just right, you may only need to get a second hole and use that and the hole from your original helix piercing to place an industrial barbell through your ear. The best thing to do is to see a professional piercer and ask what the best option is based on the shape of your ear and the placement of your existing helix piercing. You could also visit our forum(link is below), post a photo of your ear, and see what piercers and other community members suggest.
Pierce an industrial with a gun?
To answer your question, they do not use a gun to do an industrial piercing. they use something similar to a sewing needle that's the best way i can describe it. its much sharper and bigger about a 14 gauge. they have videos on youtube so you can get an idea of the steps taken and the instruments used. i have an industrial piercing myself i don't think that the needle felt any different than getting a regular earlobe or cartilage piercing with a gun both feel the same to me. I hope I was able to provide you with the answer you were looking for. Bridget, 17, New Jersey

Does it hurt to get a nose piercing done with a gun?
Do not get it done with a gun! Its really dangerous and any piercing shop should know this, if a piercing place is saying they do it with a gun. Do NOT go to them. Do it with a needle only.

Can you put in tongue rings for your industrial piercing?
No, tongue rings are specifically designed for tongue piercings and are not suitable for an industrial piercing.

How big is the needle they use to pierce the cartilage in your ear?
Well that depends on the size of the jewellery being used in the cartilage. Cartilage piercings are never to be done with a piercing gun for obvious reasons. The needle is over gauged which is to say it's one size bigger than the jewellery going into the piercing. This is to allow the tissue to heal around the exposed cartilage and allow for a clean heal between the jewellery and cartilage. This is not a do it your self piercing, serious infections and permanent damage can result due to lack of knowledge of the human body and it's structures..
