Every girl dreams of a beautiful earrings and almost every mom strives to decorate her daughter's ears this fashion accessory. At what age is best to pierce the ears of a child?
Ear piercing - a very serious topic. Many parents are advised early puncture, referring to the fact that, since the child is still very small, it is not only safer will take this painful procedure, but very quickly forget about it. Others are adults claim that such an important decision the child must take on their own, to reach the age of reason. Unfortunately, on the optimal age of ear piercing argue even the experts, so to answer unequivocally clear on all the exciting question is impossible.
There are many arguments "for" and "against" early ear piercing. Many believe that the ear piercing young children is very unsafe procedures, as
- it gives the baby a painful and unpleasant sensations;
- the child will continue to cling to clothing earrings, thereby damaging not yet healed punctures;
- in the earlobe has a very important nerve endings damaged that it is likely to provoke development of various pathologies, as well as toddler development delay;
- for any reason, you may lose earrings, and even worse, if the child finds it and pulls out of curiosity in his mouth for that would try finding the taste;
- earrings may contain nickel, which can cause an allergic reaction of the body to a foreign body.
There are also arguments in favor of early piercing. Proponents claim that
- in a small age, the child will not have the fear of the procedure, and forget about a painful puncture during half an hour, as a nightmare;
- with good-quality puncture and proper care of the sores, ear will heal much faster just at children;
- after 10 years of a child's education is a risk to the earlobe keloid scar, which is the excessive proliferation of connective tissue in the healing process.
What time of year is best to carry out the procedure?
The most favorable time of the year for the ear piercing is early autumn, because in this period, Unlike the summer it is not so hot, and therefore the risk of entry of dirt and infection is much smaller. If we talk about winter, it is a period of severe cold weather, when the parents try to coddle the baby in knitted hats and sweaters, for which there is always the probability of catch Earring.
I would like to note that informed choice about ear piercing, of course, is to make the child himself. But the task of parents - is as detailed as possible to give your child all the necessary information about the positive and negative aspects of this procedure. If the decision will be taken unanimously, for the successful puncture should find skilled professional masters, which will not only ensure maximum safety, but also can guarantee the quality of the procedure being performed on all the accepted norms.
