Nose Piercing Questions....?

Question

I want to get my nose pierced this week but I have a couple of questions.

1) How much is the apporximate cost? Including stud or not including the cost of stud? (Don't know if this matters but I live in NY)

2) How much does it hurt?

3) What are the chances that everything will go fine and my nose will not get red or irritated or anything like that?

4) How long is the healing process?

5) I have a party to go to Saturday. If I get my nose pierced Friday...do you think my nose would look fine for the next day?

Answer 1

1) call your local piercers and see what they charge places have differnt prices but dont go runnign off to the cheapest place, sometimes you get what you pay for
2) it will most liekli hurt all piercings do. i do not have my nose pierced but i ahve 4 cartilage pierings... and your nose is cartilage.. but my cartilage piercings hurt and i have a high pain tolerance. but everyones tolerance/threshold is different. so noone can tell you how much it will hurt for YOU
3) things will go fine if you go to a reputable piercer and you take care of your nose.. it will be red and irritated. it will swell a little bit. and will defineatly be red.. all of the piercings i have vere gotten have always been red up to 2 weeks after they have been pierced,, just part of the healing process. it may be swollen for a week as well (piercings are normally sowllen for a week or two) you wil be fitted wiht a larger post to accomidate the swelling.. so it may loook bulky... but im not sure about now piercings
4) healing process for a nose can be 6months to a year, depends if you have complications, liek infections, hypertrophic scarring, keloids, or boils
5) i dont knwo if your nose wil look fine for the party. .you wil not mbe able to wear any make up on your nose! thats for sure.. your nose may be red and swollen since it will only be a day old... so if its red then its red.. you cant do anythign about it and dont you dare put any make up on your nose!

1. The cost can vary from $30-70 included with cost of stud. This depends on the material of the jewelry too.

2. A nose piercing does hurt more than an earlobe piercing. But the pain is not so bad.

3. The nose has a lot of bacteria and if you neglect your piercing and don't treat it right the chances of infection is most likely. The way you can reduce the chances is by first, getting it piercing with a jewerly that you are not allergic to and that is safe (14-18k gold, *Surgical steel*). Follow your aftercare instructions and clean it with your piercing solution. Do not use hydrogen peroxide. Also avoid irritating and moving your piercing too much.

4. The healing process could be up to a few months for it to completely heal. I would say about 5-6 months. Unfortunetely I waited 2 years to heal but it never did and had to remove it (mostly because I failed to follow aftercare instructions).

5. Friday is fine to pierce though it might be a little red.

Answer 3

1. about $30-50 depending on what they charge for jewelry. you should go with something pretty basic for the piercing and buy the fancier stuff later. shops make a ton of money off of jewelry so you would be better off getting the fun stuff online later

2. if you have other piercings to compare it to, it is less than a tongue but more than the belly. not too bad or unbearable

3. if you get it done professionally and keep up with the cleanings you should be ok as long as your body doesn't have a problem with the piercing or the metal used.

4. a few weeks is average

5. i would do it on thursday instead just in case there is a bad reaction

Answer 5

a million) 6 weeks - eight weeks two) make up could irritate the piercing so so long as you attempt to observe it across the piercing it will have to be high-quality three) two times an afternoon (morning and night time) making use of salt water or saline answer four) you understand its inflamed whilst your nostril is purple and there may be inexperienced puss popping out, so sure it could seem slightly gross. but if it heals there could simply be a small dot so long as you do not choose the scab! five) so long as you do not contact the piercing you do not need to blank it however you'll be able to be growing the threat of contamination, you would simply have received fortunate along with your stomach (I handiest wiped clean mine for every week and it received inflamed so I needed to take it out) 6) sure, the university could make you're taking it out otherwise you would need to pay the penalties. (exclusion, isolation, and so forth) Hope this is helping :)
