Can I leave my piercings in during BBL surgery?

November 16, 2014
Asked By:okcho in Orlando, FL

I'm aware that all piercings must be removed during surgery, but I'm afraid if I take mine out, they will all close because they are new. I have a tongue piercings, along with ears. Is there any kind of clear or plastic jewelry that would be okay to put in the holes during surgery? Thank you!
