This category brings together the small tools and accessories that support you throughout your piercing sessions: scissors, callipers, marker pens and other everyday tools. Often discreet, these instruments nonetheless determine the precision of the gesture and the comfort of work in the studio. As a specialist piercing supplier, ITC Piercing selects reliable references suited to the real practices of professional piercers.
Here you will find everything to measure, mark and prepare each insertion with rigour: callipers to read off diameters and lengths, dermographic markers to locate entry and exit points, scissors for cutting and preparing equipment.
Why is this equipment essential day to day?
The quality of an insertion relies as much on the jewellery as on the preparation that precedes it. Precise marking with a dermographic marker ensures placement that is symmetrical and consistent with the client's anatomy, while callipers let you check the exact diameter and length of a piece before insertion. Suitable scissors make for clean cutting of materials and easy opening of sterile equipment.
Having these accessories in good condition and in sufficient quantity avoids shortages mid-session and streamlines the organisation of the workstation.
Which quality criteria should you check before buying?
For tools in contact with skin or sterile equipment, favour resistant, easy-to-disinfect materials such as stainless steel. Marker pens used for skin marking must be intended for dermographic use to ensure safety and a legible line.
The accuracy of a calliper's graduations and the lasting sharpness of quality scissors make the difference over time. All equipment must be cleanable and maintainable in compliance with the hygiene protocols in force.
Best practices for use and maintenance
Reusable tools are cleaned and disinfected after each use according to the protocols in force; single-use consumables are renewed regularly. Organised storage, away from moisture, preserves the precision and lifespan of your instruments.
A well-prepared workstation, with clean equipment within reach, speeds up insertion preparation and secures every procedure.
