Ear Piercing (Helix)

Ear Piercing & Helix Istanbul

Ear piercing is the most popular type, applied at many points from the lobe to the cartilage. At Bosphorus Ink in Istanbul, our certified piercer Gizem applies helix, tragus, daith, conch and lobe piercings sterilely at our Beşiktaş (Fulya) and Pendik studios. For a stylish, safe ear piercing, we are the right address in Istanbul.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get multiple ear piercings at once?

Yes, multiple piercings can be done in one session in suitable areas. Gizem advises a number and placement that won't complicate healing.

Do you use a gun or a needle?

We only use single-use sterile needles. A needle opens a clean channel without damaging tissue and is far more hygienic than a gun.

Is piercing safe and how is hygiene ensured?

All piercings are done with single-use sterile needles and implant-grade jewellery in a disinfected environment. Gizem is our certified piercer.

Do you have English or German-speaking staff?

Yes, our team includes English- and German-speaking members; you can handle the process in your own language.
