Piercing in Las Vegas
Start with the current weekly piercing feature, then choose booking, same-day availability, portfolio proof, or jewelry education based on what you need before you commit.
We use exclusively pre-sterilized, Southern Nevada Health Department starter jewelry selected during your consult for optimal healing and safety. For specialty titanium styles, please inquire one week in advance for custom procurement.
Single-use needles, sterilization procedures, and a clean procedure setup.
Every piercing is placed with a deep understanding of your unique ear anatomy to ensure longevity and visual harmony.
Whether you want a first ear piercing, a second lobe, or a full curated ear — piercing on the ear is placement-critical. We treat every earring piercing and cartilage point as anatomy-first: correct angle, jewelry length, and swelling room so your ear piercing heals flat in Vegas dryness.

Helix body piercing is one of our most requested cartilage services — upper-helix, forward helix, and stacked helix points planned as one composition. Unlike mall piercing guns, every helix piercing here uses sterile needles, starter jewelry selected for the placement, and anatomy mapping so the ring or stud sits flush and heals in desert climate.
We stock helix-friendly hoops and labrets; premium helix piercing jewelry can be ordered ahead for titanium builds. Pair helix work with lobe or conch points for a full curated ear — see healed helix examples in our gallery below.
Need piercing and tattoos in one trip? Work of Art is a licensed studio at 2375 E. Tropicana Ave, Suite 3 — a short drive from the Strip. Book ear curation with Katelyn Cole and custom tattoo work with Joshua Cole under the same roof.

Piercing proof
Use these studio examples to compare placement, spacing, jewelry fit, and the kind of detail Katelyn plans before a piercing appointment.
Real ear piercing work from our studio — not stock photos. Starter length, swelling room, downsizing, and healed angles documented in Vegas.

Placement and angle marked for your anatomy — starter jewelry sized for swelling.

Fresh cartilage or lobe — starter studs with extra post length for swelling.

Around 6–8 weeks swelling drops — this is when downsizing protects the angle and prevents bumps.

Downsize to a shorter post or swap ends once the fistula is stable — booked as a check-in, not a mall kiosk.

Flat and conch starters sit long on purpose — shortening too soon causes embedding and bumps.
