However, when a professional performs a nostril piercing, the pain is minimal. Jef Saunders, president of the Association of Professional Piercers APP , says that piercers often compare the pain to having an eyebrow wax procedure done or a getting a shot. When done by a professional piercer, Saunders says most piercings are less than one second for the actual piercing procedure. High nostril piercings, on the other hand, can be a bit more uncomfortable and tend to swell for a week to a month.
No matter how you slice it, piercings typically involve some pain. But there are things you can do to make sure your experience is as painless as possible. For starters, Saunders advises against showing up on an empty stomach or after drinking a lot of caffeine. For an initial piercing, the APP recommends jewelry made from any of the following metals:. The lower price point might be tempting, but a fresh piercing is an investment. Take care to invest in high-quality, safe materials. According to Saunders, piercers usually recommend their clients visit for a consultation appointment at a certain point in the healing process, generally at four to eight weeks.
This makes the jewelry look like a facial feature, like a freckle. While these two options can help, Saunders does point out they may not be sufficient to comply with work or school dress codes. Consult with a professional piercer to determine how soon your fresh piercing can be changed to one of these styles.
When it comes to choosing a piercer you like, the APP guidelines emphasize that the piercer should be working out of a professional piercing facility, not a home or other setting. A good piercing facility should have the appropriate licenses and permits displayed.
