Can I Get Rhinoplasty if I Have a Nose Piercing?

crookedtrees
I have my nose pierced, and Ill be getting revision rhinoplasty next year (not a big one, just a tiny bit getting shaved down on the side on my bridge and the tip lifted a little) My nose piercing is healed, so I can take it out for surgery. Will having the nose piercing in general cause problems for my revision?
