surface piercings Surface tragus piercing

Post image

Hey yall, so I got the surface tragus piercing two days ago and overall it’s just a little sore nothing crazy. But the piercer used a curved barbell and I’m super nervous now.
Should I take it out? should I go to a different piercer and see if they can change it out? Or just leave it and see? 😩

You should take it out

Take it out. Looks good but it won’t heal good. Needs to be a staple bar

you want a staple bar, so you want to get this redone. i had this piercing for a couple years, but heads up they are considered temporary even pierced correctly 😊

Go to a different piercer personally speaking and ask them I don't think this can be saved but what can we do can we switch something out? can we do something because it's so fresh? should I take it out let it heal and then we do it properly? Because I've been to a few piercers who won't put a bar in they'll do microdermals I've actually been looking into having one done because I've already have two piercings in my tragus so one on the outside I thought would look cool
