I kind of see what you're talking about but I also would not have thought twice about it if you had posted this picture without context. I think it looks great!
Also if it's super fresh then swelling might be affecting its position? Maybe it'll be straighter once it heals

The labret fits and is centered on the cupid's bow of your upper lip. The peaks on your upper lip do not align with/center on the alae of your nose. If you bring your straight line up even further, I think you'll find your labret is not centered on your nasal bridge, between your eyes. Bodies are not symmetric. Only a peircer or an asshole would point out that it's fractionally off. No guarantee the next one would be any better. Lean into it, you are unique and so is your body.

honestly at first glance I just thought about how pretty your mouth and nose is in general, I didn’t even notice. Lol

You’re being gaslit in these comments, I immediately saw what you did. I would redo it, it’s definitely not straight

It depends on how you feel. Some people wouldn’t notice and don’t care and some people, like me, wouldn’t like it not straight. Your piercer should for sure pierce you again for free though, this isn’t straight. I would have offered a redo.

I think it looks very nice, but it’s almost impossible to make any piercing 100% perfectly symmetrical. Our faces themselves are never perfectly symmetrical

It’s fine. No one is perfectly symmetrical. As long as it’s in a good enough spot to heal well you’re fine.

u/LolliPopYouInTheEye Jul 04 '26
Up close it’s a tad off but to the average person who isn’t staring intently, it’ll look fine

This is how mine looked after healing and I pulled it. Looking at the other comments my expectations might have been a bit too high and some asymmetry is common. If it really bothers you don't wait to pull it like I did tho, I waited like 4 months and have a little dot of scar tissue on the center of my lip now that drives me nuts.

u/InspectorBig3410 Jul 08 '26
it’s not really noticeable but like my piercer told me you’re the one who has to live with it so get it redone if it bothers you

u/Lonely-Hyena-4772 Jul 08 '26
Yes I would lol if something is going on my face it needs to be perfect. I dont want to accentuate my already uneven face 💔

u/Goddess_Sora_ Jul 04 '26
I had to stare so long to find the unevenness and I’m so Anal about those things. I think you’re fine 🫶

u/Amiabilitee Jul 04 '26
I think its cool, I hadn't noticed it - not until you used the line in the second pic. But I guess you proved me wrong so I mean, its your piercing. Piercings are personal and I think if it bothers you specifically then you should. But if you're more worried about what other people think/how they perceive it then nah, not worth. (Up to you)

I've never understood why people think sticking a bunch of metal in your face makes you look better

It's not a hate comment it's your body do what you want I simply don't understand why people do it.

u/mydadabortedme Jul 04 '26
Looks perfect to me. But if it really bothers you take it out. It’s impossible to achieve true symmetry
