Sterilization traceability for piercing studios in France

The same sterilization requirements that apply to tattoo studios apply to piercing. SecuSteri gives you a digital sterilization register that's always ready for inspection.

What the law requires from piercing studios

Enforced by ARS (Agence Régionale de Santé)

Piercing is regulated under the same 2008 decree as tattooing. All instruments entering the skin or in contact with mucous membranes must be sterile — either single-use or sterilized in an autoclave before each use. Jewelry supports must also be sterile. Studios must have a dedicated sterilization room, maintain a traceability record, and hold a valid hygiene certification.
