A septum piercing can hurt a lot for a short time but heals quickly because the septum is so thin. And if you have a deviated septum or similar condition, this kind of piercing can hurt even more because your septum nerves can be overactive.

How long should I wait to get my septum redone?

Septum piercings do take a long time to heal. The longer you leave the earring in, the better. You should wait 6 – 8 months before removal. If you find that it’s too long to wait, as long as it’s healed well, you can change the septum piercing in 6 – 8 weeks time.

Can you repierce the same hole?

The answer is complicated. You need to have your professional piercer examine the place where you want to be repierced.

Do septum piercings get infected easily?

What nose shape is best for a septum piercing?

Septum piercing works best on noses with wider septums, as more narrow septums may not provide much of a surface area for the piercing.

How do I know my septum is pierced correctly?

The piercings should be towards the front of the nose, and placed up at the nostrils. If a ring is oversized, it may have some hang, but there should be some that show a properly fitted placement.

How do you reopen a closed septum piercing?

To reopen a closed septum piercing, you can apply any cream or gel to the closed hole. Clean with soap water and try inserting the jewelry. Use oil or vaseline. If it is older than 6 months, you may have to put a little pressure to insert the jewelry.

Does repiercing your nipples hurt more?

The piercing itself doesn’t make your nipples more sensitive, but it does make them stick out more and makes you more aware of them. So for some, this is more than enough to make a noticeable difference in sensitivity.

Can you get your nose pierced with a hoop?

You can choose either a stud or a hoop as your initial jewelry, but the hoop will cause the piercing to heal with a slight curve, so it’s recommended that you start with a nose stud. You can always switch to a hoop later.

FAQ

Does repiercing septum hurt?
