Surgical Stainless Steel

~

Surgical Stainless Steel is a silver colour, it is very strong and should always stay highly polished. However, it is not totally hypoallergenic for some people. Surgical Steel contains nickel and there are quite a few people out there who are allergic to or have a sensitivity to nickel in jewellery. Surgical stainless steel is still used by many people for fresh piercings but many people now prefer to choose high quality Titanium jewellery if available for their new body piercings. However, when a piercing has fully healed and toughen up most people are able to wear Surgical Steel jewellery without a problem.
