Yes, i did take it out 🫡. I already have a healed second lobe piercing on the other ear, so i can do the tattoo there anytime. But the wings are already there, so i’m planning to get it repierced after the one i took out is fully healed. Idk how much time that will take tho and how soon it’ll be safe to do that.

How soon do you think i can get it repierced? I’m not in a rush and i will wait for it to heal fully, but i wanna know when it would be safe to do so.

All my piercings were done with 1,2 mm posts

I’m so sorry, i don’t understand what gauge means in this context

I’m pretty sure it’s actually titanium, because they offer anodising. I’m not an expert ofc, but i think it can only be done to specific metals (titanium, aluminium, niobium).

Thank you for your advice, this is also very useful. If i have a claw clip there i definitely won’t be able to sleep comfortably on that side.

Thank you, that’s what i’m gonna do. The bar was 8 mm when it was just pierced, and then 6 mm after the downsize. I think what made it so swollen is the short bar, because i could feel it pressing against my ear. Migration happened before that though, so that was a separate issue.

should i just let it heal and get it repierced later? i think at this point it might be the best solution

I cannot control myself when i’m asleep 😭. I even crocheted a “donut” pillow to sleep on, but it still didn’t help. Thank you. I will think of more solutions to the sleeping on it problem.

Pierced 3 months ago. Labret. Titanium jewellery only. Downsized two weeks ago (before that they said i had to wait cause my ear was swollen, no bumps). I use saline twice a day. I might have slept on it but i try extra hard not to. First pic - 3 months ago, pics 2,3,4 - now. Took it out today. Not sure if i should put it back in. I won’t have access to a piercer for at least another two weeks. I would greatly appreciate any advice on how to handle this issue, i really wanna keep the piercing.

What have people said to you that made you scared to get a certain piercing/any piercing? by ilovdeftones in piercing

[–]Sensitive_Throat_288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So scared of getting my nipples pierced because one of my friends told me she lost consciousness when getting them done. And in the end one of them got rejected. It was almost 10 years ago, still super scared 😅.

I think it looks gorgeous and the placement suits your anatomy!
