Professional Ring Removal for Stuck Rings
A ring can become stuck for many reasons, including:
- Swelling from heat, injury, or fluid retention
- Rings that no longer fit due to sizing changes
- Arthritis or joint swelling
- Long-term wear causing the ring to tighten over time
Trying to force a ring off at home can cause pain, skin damage, or make swelling worse. Our in-store ring cutting service is designed to safely remove the ring without unnecessary risk.
What Types of Rings Can We Cut Off?
We are able to cut and remove rings made from:
- Gold (yellow, white, rose)
- Platinum
- Silver
These metals are suitable for ring cutting and removal using professional jeweller tools.
Metal Rings We Cannot Cut Off
Some metals are too hard or unsuitable for our ring cutting equipment.
We cannot cut rings made from:
- Titanium
- Stainless steel
- Zirconium
- Or any other alternative/hard metals
If you’re unsure what metal your ring is, we can assess it in-store.
Ring Cutting Cost Guide
Ring cutting / stuck ring removal: $80 (guide price)
This includes cutting the ring to safely remove it from your finger.
$80 Credit Toward Repair or Resizing of That Ring
If you choose to have your ring resized or repaired with MDT DESIGN, the $80 ring cutting fee is deducted from the total cost of the resize/repair.
We do this because in many cases, your finger may be swollen at the time of removal and it’s often best to wait until the swelling settles before confirming the correct size for resizing.
This allows you to:
- Have the ring safely removed ($80)
- Go home and allow your finger to return to normal
- Return later for accurate resizing or repair
- Have the $80 taken off the final repair/resize total
Why It’s Best to Book an Appointment
We recommend making an appointment so we can:
- Ensure a jeweller is available to assist you quickly
- Assess the ring metal and condition properly
- Remove the ring safely and efficiently
- Discuss repair or resizing options once your finger settles
If your ring is stuck and causing discomfort, booking ahead helps us look after you as soon as possible.
Ring Resizing & Repairs After Ring Cutting
After a ring is cut off, it may be able to be repaired depending on the ring style, metal type, and condition. We can discuss the best option for you, including:
- Ring repair after cutting
- Ring resizing (once swelling has gone down)
- Checking correct sizing and comfort fit
Our goal is to remove the ring safely first, then help you get it back to wearing condition when the time is right.
