I had mine pierced for several years but took it out 5 years ago.  If you look close, you can still see where the hole was, but I'd never be able to get an earring through it now (it's closed).  I work w/ teenage girls, and they're the only ones who ever notice the teeny hole.

You could smash it yourself with a sledghammer then put a prefabricated mold of a straight nose tightly around your face for six to eight weeks and you might have a straight nose. of course that is do it yourself surgery. Just pony up and pay to have it fixed if it bothers you

on the inside of your nose there will be a part that you can twist it off or pull it off it all depends on what type of ring you have in yur nose .it also may be very hard to get out when i hade mine it took me almost 4 hrs to get it out. i found that putting on rubber gloves did the trick good luck

piercings are different for everyone. But it should take atleast 2 weeks, maybe longer, for you to be able to change it. \nand in the mean time make sure you keep it clean with salt water or alcohol wipes which would help prevent infection so you can change it sooner

I enjoy a pierced nose- they look nice to me, especially if they're rings versus studs (sorry).  I couldn't wear one, I don't think, but I like the look.\n\nI'm absolutely enamored, though, with lip rings on the bottom lip, at the corner.  Yum!  They're just so dang hot.\n\nBut never a tongue ring.  Yick.  Just a personal preference.\n\nEnjoy your fetish!

I have has mine done twice, because it got infected. The clamps do hurt when they are prepping you for the piercing. The piercing did not for me. The healing can also be painful. Keep it clean if you get it, and use a mixture of 1/2 mouthwash, 1/2 water to rinse after you eat, drink or smoke if you do. Also if you have any metal allergies, like to nickel, I reccommend that you do NOT get pierced. It is a bigger pain then it is worth. Literally. Also get silver or gold jewelry or plastic if you do have metal allergies. Don't go cheap because it will get infected and infections in your head are very serious. Now for the 2nd part of your question, should you get it done? That is a very personal question, it will affect how people look at you and what types of jobs you can get. Hope that helps.

Take pictures of it and post daily so we can evaluate it. We'll let you know what steps to take!\n\nKidding (maybe)...they should have told you how to care for it where you got it pierced. Unless you did it yourself. Yikes. Maybe you should see a doctor.

Yes, taking a piss becomes an issue! The piercing passes through the pee-hole and out below the glans, the result is that not only can pee escape through the new hole (particularly later when everything is healed up and the piercing is loose-fitting) but it can also affect the direction of flow through the normal route....affecting your once un-erring accuracy! This does not have to be a serious problem....just like anything, you will become familiar with the new dynamics and adjust as necessary. Still, it could be a bit of a misery when you have had a few too may to drink and dont pay as much attention as you should! The other thing that I am not sure you have considered is that it is not just pee that exits that way...! Either way, dont stress, give it a try....and if you dont like it you can just take it out and let things heal up.

Yes, you will have to take your piercings out... The explination they gave me was that if anything went wrong during surgery and they needed to intibate (breath for me) inserting the tube could possibly force the piercing in to the airway.... advice take them out and get re-pierced later... (I had to... agreed it stinks!)\n\nAs for tonsil removal at 18... I had it done at your age.... remember a very raw and sore throat for about three days and feeling very tired... not so bad that I couldn't eat a hamburger in a few days though!

Well, this is coming from experience...I got my eyebrow pierced last April, & unfortunately it rejected, & I had to take it out just 5 mths. later. If left behind a lil' scar, but that's all...There's no patch of hair missing on my eyebrow or snything, like someone else said...It's a pretty safe piercing, & it doesn't hurt to get it either. The most you may feel is some pressure, & maybe a lil' soreness. Keep it clean, don't play with it, & do as your Piercer tells you do to take care of it, & you should be fine...\n\nHappy Piercings!

Depends on how long ago you had it done. If you take out the one that's messed up and let it close and redo that ear it should come out ok. That happened to my lil sis about 2 weeks ago and she got hers corrected I don't see why you couldn't do the same thing. Just try not to make the second hole too close to the first or you'll end up making an extra large hole instead of a new one. Good luck!

No, but you will probably get an infection around the bit that's left (like when you get a sliver under your skin)

I am a piercer and tattoo artist, and I know that if done properly the piercing will enhance the experience, but with all things you will get adjusted and the experience will fade in time. Do it and then when the excitement wears of remove the thing. It is your choice and your body, and nobody Else's.

First, you must make sure that you keep your nose clean. Start a regimine immediately. Four times a day, clean the peircing with dial soap and sea salt (This can be purchased at a local grocery store.) Do NOT touch the peircing unless you are cleaning it. Never squeeze it, since this also encourages infection. Also, make sure to keep it dry. Dry the peircing thoroughly and if the infection has spread inside your nose, dab a bit of antibacterial gel on a q-tip and gently swab the inside. Don't use a ton, since you won't want to feel like you have a bunch of snot in your nose. Do not cover the infection, as the heat and moisture will breed bacteria. It shouldn't take more than a week or two to qualm the infection. Also, you shouldn't clean it with alcohol or peroxide, since this will dry the skin out around the peircing, making it scab and harden.\n\nHowever, since you took the stud out, it will probably close up and you'll have to get it repeirced. Sorry about that news, especially because you'll be needling through scar tissue now. :( \n\nBy the way, I've noticed a lot of people telling you to go to the doctor, which is also a good idea.

Ever since I was younger I had considered getting plastic surgery on my nose (nose job).  IF I were to ever get plastic surgery, that is honestly the only work I would ever have done because I am very happy with my appearance and the only thing I don't really like is my nose. I have considered it, but I'll probably never do it.  I think people look terrible after having a lot of work done and I'm afraid I might regret it or it might be terribly painful.

I have several things pierced. They include my left nipple, left ear (normal), left eyebrow, labret, and navel. I got all these many years ago though, so I hardly wear pieces in them now.

i have a facial piercing and in no way am i ugly. the reason people get pierced is a personal choice just as some people like to get tattoos. there is no reason to hate on someone because of a personal choice they make in there lives. not only is it none of ur business but why do you even make it your concern? it in no way effects you at all. if you are in a store and the cashier has a nose ring ... what does that have to do with the service he or she provides for you? you are not goin to kill over and die because of this fact are you? and with the day and age we live in now you may as well get over ur lil phobia or you are going to have issues. more and more employers are accepting the fact that this has become part of our culture and not just a passing fad. so having said all that... next time you think you need to make a rash judgment call on others to make your self feel better... take a look in the mirror and figure out what the reason is that you need to spend your time thinking in such a shallow and hateful way. and then maybe you will realize the problem in fact is not with others yet it lays within yourself.
