I took out my nose piercing about a year ago and I still have this bump.
Thank you for your photo. For an older scar that has plateaued in their improvement, microneedling with or without PRP and radiofrequency both make microscopic holes in the scar to flatten and stimulate your body to remodel and fill in the scar with new collagen to restructure the scar. Another option is a steroid injection into the scar tissue to shrink the excess scar tissue. Not everyone is a candidate for all the treatment options however as certain skin types can get worse from certain treatments. For the safest treatment plan, it is important to visit an expert for an in-person examination. Hope this helps!Johnson C. Lee MD Plastic Surgery@drjohnsonlee
This bump looks like secondary scarring or keloid from the trauma of piercing.Steroid with 5-FU injections into the lesion periodically may help calm it down.Dr Brecht Seattle, Wa
