⚙️ Composition & Manufacturing Standards Caflon nose studs are crafted from surgical‑grade stainless steel that is nickel-compliant under European Nickel Directive 94/27/EC, and packaged using ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization in validated blister seals—ensuring each piece is individually sterile through its expiry date Caflon refers to this material as “S‑Grade stainless steel”—marketing it as hypoallergenic, though it is not implant-grade titanium, which remains superior for those with nickel sensitivity🏅 Industry Standards & Biocompatibility Trusted bodies like the Association of Professional Piercers (APP) recommend only certain surgical stainless steels such as those compliant with ASTM F138 or ISO 5832‑1, 10993‑6/10/11 standards for safe use in initial piercingsCaflon’s surgical steel potentially meets such nickel directive compliance, but it’s not clearly documented whether it follows these exact ASTM/ISO implant‑grade spec📥 Intended Use & Aftercare Protocols While Caflon designs ear piercing studs for sterile, safe insertion using their calibrated piercing gun, their aftercare guidance is tailored to ear lobes—typically suggesting rotation of studs a quarter turn daily during healing, and keeping studs loose and dry These protocols do not directly translate to nasal piercings, which differ widely in skin tissue, anatomy, and movement dynamics. Most piercing experts recommend no rotation, minimal handling, and no use of bone-style (C‑bend) studs during nose healing
