Nose Piercing in Baku — Nostril Piercing

Most nose piercings are done in the nostril, on the left or right. The cosmetologist pierces with a sterile single-use hollow needle and inserts surgical-steel jewellery straight away: a flat-back stud, or a ring if agreed. The nostril is cartilage, so it heals more slowly than an earlobe — usually several months — and the jewellery shouldn't be removed or changed during that time. Piercing is done by a Paramed cosmetologist.

• ✅ Rinse the piercing with sterile saline twice a day
• ✅ Don't twist or remove the jewellery until fully healed
• ✅ Avoid pools, saunas and open water for 2–3 weeks
• ✅ Don't touch the piercing with unwashed hands
• ✅ Strong pain, swelling or discharge — come and show the cosmetologist

You choose surgical-steel jewellery, the cosmetologist marks the spot and disinfects the skin. The piercing is made with a sterile single-use hollow needle — the tissue is pierced, not 'shot' with a gun — and the jewellery goes straight into the channel. It takes a few minutes, and afterwards the cosmetologist explains how to look after it.
