Getting your nose pierced after open rhinoplasty Started by: tallulahfj1

    Hi everyone! I’m 16 months post-op and I really want to get my nose pierced. I’ve always wanted it done but I never did when I had a horrible nose – now it’s nice, I think it would look good!

    I was wondering if there’s anyone who has (or knows someone who has) gotten a nose piercing after a nose job? I’m not talking about a septum piercing, just a standard nostril piercing. My nose is fully healed and feels fine, but there doesn’t seem to be much consensus online as to how long to wait! Some surgeons are saying 6-8 weeks and others say no less than a year. I know it would be best to speak to the surgeon (Mr Gonschior) but I have no issues and it’s a bit inconvenient to get time off work to travel all the way down to London/Birmingham just to ask if I can get my nose pierced! Any help would be appreciated, thanks 🙂

    Hi your well over year post op so I think you can! I have nose piercing first time had it done I caught an infection and the piercing closed up after about a month so I had to wait another three months till it was fully healed as I wanted it on same side and place so had mine again and it’s now been about 6months and its totally fine but with nose piercings you can’t leave them out as if you take the nose stud out it will start to close up.. Hope this helps.
