Helix Piercing
Ink & Claws performs helix piercings at our studio in Mohammed Wadi, close to NIBM Road in South Pune. The helix sits along the upper outer curve of the ear and is one of the most popular cartilage placements.
Cartilage needs more care than the lobe. We use a single-use sterile needle and fit a titanium flat-back labret, which sits flush against the skin and is far kinder during healing than a hoop.
We position the piercing to suit your ear anatomy and any future curation you have in mind. Helix piercings generally take three to six months to fully settle.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a helix piercing take to heal?
Cartilage piercings like the helix typically take three to six months to fully heal.
Why a flat-back instead of a hoop?
A titanium flat-back labret sits flush and moves less, which reduces irritation while cartilage heals. You can switch to a hoop once settled.
