“As a member of the Rowan Medical Advisory Board, I collaborated closely with our team to establish the Rowan Clinical Piercing Standard, a comprehensive set of guidelines designed to guarantee the safest piercing experience possible. As a result, our rate of adverse reactions is less than 1% compared to the industry average of 30%, regardless of whether you opt for our needle piercing or device piercing.”
