THE gun does not win more suffrage in terms of hygiene, since it is not sterile: only the jewel is. During the drilling, the Projection of organic materials takes place on the pistol and it is just disinfected and not sterilized. Sterilization only destroys any type of micro organism, unlike disinfection that eliminates only a few. In addition, the jeweler is rare that the jeweler performs correct skin asepsis, he disinfects the alcohol drilling area (when he does) while the pierceur achieves asepsis in 4 stages. Yes yes you have read correctly, this protocol is an obligation for the perceur as well as the wearing of sterile gloves. This is the source of many post -drilling infections and complications. Finally all piercing material is sterile and single use (Compresses, gloves, needle/catheter, jewel).

In jewelry, titanium is rare, not to say nonexistent, it is gold only that will be offered to you in first pose.
