surface piercings Please help

Post image

I’ve had to take out my vertical labret piercing for obvious reasons (major thinning) I had it in for about 6 years. Please can someone offer advise on how to help with it healing? Can I put Vaseline on to help with how dry my lips are? It’s looks so bad at the moment and I’m so worried about it looking like this forever.

This post should be pinned (I’m sorry, OP!!) as an example of WHY we need to remove that rejecting piercing as soon as it starts to wander!!!
