Consultation process with clients for nose and ear piercings

Procedure
Introduction
The consultation is a foundational step in the piercing process where practitioners gather crucial information and
build rapport with the client. This stage is designed to ensure client comfort, manage expectations, and address
any health concerns that could impact the piercing procedure.
Demonstration of the Consultation Process:

1 Greeting and Rapport Building: Start by welcoming the client and establishing a comfortable environment
for open communication.
2 Understanding Client Needs: Inquire about the client’s desired outcome for their piercing, including the
specific location on the nose or ear, and the style of jewelry they prefer.

3 Medical and Health Screening: Conduct a thorough health screening by asking about any known allergies,
skin conditions, blood clotting disorders, or any medications that could affect the piercing process and healing.

4 Information Sharing: Clearly explain the piercing process, what it entails, the risks involved, and the aftercare
required post-procedure.
5 Addressing Concerns: Give the client an opportunity to ask questions and express any concerns they might
have about the piercing. Address these concerns with informed, reassuring responses.
6 Consent: Ensure the client is fully informed and willing to proceed, then obtain written consent to perform the
piercing procedure.
