Abstract

Ear piercing is highly popular globally. The traditional methods of ear piercing include passing a wire, followed by jewelry, piercing guns, intravenous cannula (18G) employed to pierce the ear lobule [1]. Other methods include the eyelet-type Teflon tube, angiocatheter, magnetic earrings, and a 14- or 16-gauge trocar needle antrum [2]. Other safe options for body piercing include solid gold of 14 or 18 karats, niobium, titanium, and platinum [3]. We feel that the cannula method is effective, as piercing is globally popular and the technique is easy and single staged. We made little modification to the technique, which is convenient and friendly to the patient.
