Do Nose Piercings Leave Scars?
Nose piercings are generally safe and don’t cause scars under healthy, normal conditions. Still, for some people, infection, allergy or the body’s natural tendency to produce too much scar tissue can lead to scarring. Good piercing care, such as avoiding friction and cleaning your piercing properly, can go a long way toward preventing scars, according to the Association of Professional Piercers. Fortunately, dermatologists can help treat any scars that do form.
