Answer: Rhinoplasty Thanks for the question. You should not 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.

Answer: Nose Piercing After Rhinoplasty
Nose piercing can damage the underlying cartilages. I see patients I operate on with a hole in the lower lateral cartilage as a result from the piercing.
The pros and cons of nasal piercing should be discussed with your rhinoplasty surgeon. Generally speaking, piercing of the nose can take place at 8 weeks after a primary rhinoplasty.

Answer: Nose piercing after Rhinoplasty You should wait at least 6-8 weeks in order to give you nose enough time to heal. In general, I would not recommend you ever re-pierce your nose after a rhinoplasty though. You also don't want to increase your risk of infection by piercing your nose. Of course, ask your own plastic surgeon what he/she recommends! Best regards, Dr. Speron

Answer: Nasal piercing after rhinoplasty Most wounds have healed within 6 weeks. However, exceptions include the possible use of an alar margin graft and therefore you should discuss this with your surgeon prior to proceeding.
