Description
If you're getting skin reactions around your piercings, or you feel like there's a bump around your piercing hole, you should start using tea tree oil to take care of the symptoms. Tea tree oil dehydrates the inflammation and reduces swelling. For the same reason, we recommend that you use it if you're gauging or stretching your earlobe piercings.
The small bottle contains 0.17 fl Oz (5 ml) of oil, and it's very powerful. You only need to apply a tiny amount of oil to the swollen area and massage it softly so that it's rapidly absorbed. You can apply it on your fingers directly, or use an ear cotton swab. The oil has a quite intense smell and a potent effect on inflamed skin.
Tea tree oil is well known for its antiseptic effects. It contains essential oils that fight against inflammation. It's very comfortable to use because it doesn't sting or hurt, and this is especially encouraging for the most irritated piercings.
Apart from disinfecting, tea tree oil can also be used to prevent infections. Last, but not least, it can also be used for other swollen lumps, like the ones caused by insect bites. Tea tree oil is a very convenient product for piercing aftercare, which can be needed at any time. If you haven't got one yet, but you love piercings, you better get one!
Bear in mind this bottle contains 100% tea tree oil. We recommend that you first apply it to a small part of your skin that has no problems and test it, because very sensitive skin may reject it. If this is your case, try mixing 1 part of this oil with 10 of water.

The Last Hope
My piercing has been healing in waves for over a year. Sometimes it was better, sometimes worse, but it never really managed to completely heal. I tried all kinds of ointments and different materials for nose piercings, but I never managed to achieve any changes. This oil was my last hope; if this doesn't work, I was thinking about taking out the piercing. Well, I've been using it for 3-4 days now, and it's healing at a rapid pace, which makes me very happy. I'm grateful that I can finally keep it in my nose. :)

Positively surprised!
I had started struggling with severe inflammation in one of my nipple piercings, and from one day to the next, I woke up with a large irritation bump on it. I randomly came across this oil and thought I would try my luck. I have now been using this oil for 3 days and the bump is SIGNIFICANTLY SMALLER! And there is also not as much pus/gunk coming from my piercing now as there was before I started. However, note! That the oil has a very strong smell. I will continue to use this oil and it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Irritated piercing
I had a tragus piercing that lasted, itched, and was incredibly swollen. Yes, I took care of cleaning it perfectly with saline solution, but it was still irritated. I saw this oil and ordered it. In the first few days, I almost thought it got worse, and it smelled strong. Then, overnight, the swelling was completely gone, there was no irritation at all. Fantastic product!

Granulation tissue almost gone around the nostril
I had granulation tissue shortly after my piercing and was afraid that I would have to let it heal (like my helix). My piercer first gave me hydrogen peroxide, which helped quite a bit, but the bump never really went away. I then bought silicone pads and tea tree oil on Bodymod. Together they work wonders, and my granulation tissue is almost gone after long treatment! Although my skin around the nose dries out a bit, that's totally okay.

Unfortunately not helpful
I used the oil on my cheeks because I have pus-filled lumps... unfortunately, on the fifth day, I have to note that lumps have formed again. I am slowly at a loss!

Best solution against "bubbles"
I have now been struggling with a bump next to my nose piercing since the beginning of December - I was about to give up and just take the piercing out. But already two days after I started using this oil, my bump was almost gone - I can hardly believe it's true. It's a miracle.
