advice
I got some piercings a few years ago and I just removed them for good. I have a problem now though because the scars are REALLY noticable and not very nice looking. The ones I'm really upset about are the monroe piercing, labret, and the nose piercing. My nose piercing has weird white skin around where the hole is and the other two are just big HOLES in me even though they were small gauges.
Is there anything I can put on the scars to make them go away faster or would I need to see a doctor for some sort of treatment or scar reduction? I know they're techincally "puncture wounds" so they're considered to be deep. I only need the "outside" part of them to heal up and look normal again though. Please help me because I wish I had never done this to my face... :(
The only one I'm positive for an answer is your monroe piercing because I had one, when I took mine out there was a noticible scar for a while but after about three weeks (maybe less) it healed and you can't even notice it unless you reaaaally look. It may depend on how long you had it and how well you took care of it though, I only had mine for about three months.
(Rating: 3) I had my monroe for a few years and it was the last of my piercings.
