If my body rejects piercings, will it put me at a higher risk for cc?

I have my ears pierced and I am not able to wear anything but pure gold or platinum. I also had my belly button pierced years ago and my body rejected it, pushing it out and leaving a big scar on my belly button. Do you think this would have any affect on a higher risk of cc? Also when I was a baby I has Pyloric Stenosis. And there is a bit of scar tissue that has made a bump over the scar. Does this also have any reason to cause alarm for cc? My breast augmentation surgery is Scheduled for December 15th.
