Medusa Piercing Experience! Has Anybody Ever Had Medusa Pierced? How Long Did It Take To Heal?

Body art with facial piercings is striking. If you're going to commit to one, you also need to be prepared to embrace the process, which includes being disciplined throughout the aftercare as well as getting up the nerve to get pierced. But how can you choose which part of your face to beautify when there are so many? Start with the medusa piercing, which is a delicate but very stylish place to wear jewelry.

• Healing time for a Medusa piercing ranges from 8 to 12 weeks. How well and how quickly you heal can be influenced by how well you take care of yourself and your piercing. It's crucial to adhere to the post-piercing instructions your piercing specialist advised you during the healing process.

• Pain level: The lip area has more nerve endings than the ear lobe, but the pain is brief. A professional piercing needle is very sharp, and people have different thresholds for pain, so it is difficult to tell how each person will respond to the experience.

Here are some ways to care for your piercing:

• Wash your hands thoroughly before cleaning your piercing.

• Use a sterile saline solution, like Base Labs Sea Salt Wash or Base Labs Piercing Aftercare Spray at least twice daily.

• Practice proper oral hygiene.

• Use a new toothbrush. Keep it clean and away from others.

• Sleep with your head elevated, and use cold compresses to reduce swelling.

•  new piercing is at risk of infection. A person should avoid kissing or oral sex for the first two weeks after a new piercing.

• darkness or discoloration around the piercing area, swollen, and hot to touch.
• blood or pus leaking from the wound
• feeling shivery or ill.

If you decide to go ahead with a Medusa piercing, having a skilled and reputable piercing professional is key.

Combine that with a little extra diligence when it comes to aftercare, and you can avoid infection and keep your philtrum bling for the long haul.
