Getting a Piercing

At Adrenaline, all of our piercings are done on a walk-in basis, so you can come in whenever you would like. Our knowledgeable and friendly staff will run you through all jewelry options available for the specific piercing you are interested in. For most piercings, we offer the choice 316 LVM stainless steel, 14K gold and titanium jewelry.

However, before you choose your jewelry, make sure you bring in your valid government issued picture ID (ex. Drivers license, Ontario ID) as you need to be a minimum of 16 years old to receive a piercing at Adrenaline. At a minimum of 14 years of age, with parental consent and valid ID on both parts, certain piercings are permitted.

After ID has been checked and jewelry has been chosen, you will meet one of Adrenaline's qualified piercers. Upon entering the piercing room, you will notice that all surfaces that are anticipated to become contaminated are covered with barriers such as dry back dental bibs and all instruments, needles and jewelry are contained in their own sterile packing. All instruments or medical supplies that will be sued during your piercing will be opened and discarded in front of you to ensure their individual use. Also, you will see such precautions as hand-free foot pumps for our antimicrobial scrubs and rinses, as well as sharps containers to assure that contamination is avoided. The piercers at Adrenaline have been trained by Health Educators Inc. in sterile technique for set-up, procedure, and tear down of piercings so you can be confident that you are in good hands.
