Will nose piercings ruin a nose job in the future? (photos)

If you had piercings done in advance, it likely would not lead to a problem. We have seen cases, however, where piercings are placed directly into the tip cartilage and sometimes this can cause a small challenge interoperatively. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph

If you're planning to get surgery on your columella to correct the asymmetry in your nose, it's generally recommended that you remove any facial piercings beforehand. This is because the piercings can interfere with the surgery and potentially increase the risk of complications. The piercings can also affect the healing process, causing the area to become more inflamed or infected.

For these reasons, it's typically recommended that you remove any facial piercings before undergoing any type of facial surgery, including rhinoplasty. It's best to discuss this with your surgeon during your consultation to get their specific recommendations based on your individual situation.

In general, it's a good idea to wait until after the surgery to have any facial piercings re-done. This will allow sufficient time for the area to heal and reduce the risk of complications. Your surgeon can advise you on the appropriate timing for re-piercing based on your individual situation and the type of piercing you're interested in.

It's important to remember that facial surgery, including rhinoplasty, is a significant decision that requires careful consideration and planning. Make sure to choose a qualified and experienced surgeon, discuss all your concerns and expectations, and carefully follow their post-operative instructions for the best possible outcome.

I hope this helps,
Best of luck !
