When can I put in my nose ring again after rhinoplasty? I'm 12 days post op.

Thanks for the question. You shouldn't have piercings for at least 2-4 months. Then, if you talk to your surgeon and get approval, there is no obstacle to having a piercing. I wish you all the best.

Your nose has undergone a significant amount of trauma during your rhinoplasty. At 12 days, it is still too sensitive and swollen to tolerate the insertion of a nose ring. I would wait at least two months before considering putting the nose ring back. Even then, I would advise some caution if it takes any kind of manipulation or force to get the ring in. It’s unlikely the hole would close up in that time. If your nose still seems significantly swollen at two months, I’d wait longer. Better to re-pierce your nose than to damage it by too much manipulation too soon. I hope this helps.
