Eyebrow piercing scar. Long list of navel piercing problems. Piercing hole: getting rid of puncture marks

If your skin is damaged by a piercing, your cells begin to produce a substance known as collagen to close the wound. If you pull out the jewelry and allow the umbilical piercing to heal, the collagen will form a rough, dense, mossy lump that later turns into a scar. Scars often have different textures and differ in color from the surrounding healthy skin. Over the years, the scar more or less evens out in color and becomes several tones closer to the natural skin color.

If the piercing was done by a non-professional, the scar may appear more prominent and lighter. A normal piercing scar looks like small dots above the navel and on top of the inside - and only slightly differ in color from the general skin tone. Such minor scars can be made even less noticeable by applying vitamin E oil to them after you massage the scar a little.

2. Use your fingers to massage the scar tissue with moderate pressure for two minutes.

3. Gently squeeze the vitamin E capsule with one hand and squeeze one drop onto the finger of the other hand.

4. Massage the resulting oil into the scar near the navel.

5. Repeat the entire process three times a day.

Warnings and additions:

What affects the tightening speed?

Several factors affect the rate of closure of the hole:

  • Duration of the procedure. If the process was carried out from several weeks to a year ago by the time the decision was made to get rid of the hole, the tightening will occur quickly. In the case when several years have passed since the puncture, the tightening will take longer.
  • Individual characteristics. Healing and regeneration is different for different people. In some, even large holes heal quickly and without scarring, while in others, a small one can leave a noticeable scar. Whether the hole will grow after the piercing procedure depends on the speed of the regeneration processes.
  • A place. The holes on the nose are tightened depending on the dislocation. If the septum or wings of the nose are punctured, the hole may disappear after a month. In the case where the hole has broken through the cartilage, the tightening can last up to two months. The navel tissues are tightened up to six months. Be sure to keep this in mind when planning your pregnancy. The same interval must be waited in order for the puncture site to overgrow on the eyebrow. Holes on the lips and tongue disappear in a month. An intimate piercing can take from 1 to 6 months.

Piercing is the piercing of various areas on the body and face to decorate with earrings. This type of body modification techniques is a small surgical intervention in which the integrity of the skin or cartilage tissue is violated. The procedure has contraindications, which are due to the peculiarities of wound healing and the risk of complications.

  • Raises or sinks compared to other skin
  • has a geometric or linear shape;
  • does not contain sweat glands and hair;
  • smoothed epidermis pattern;
  • light or dark color.

  • normotrophic;
  • keloid;
  • atrophic.

After injuries and punctures, a keloid scar appears on the skin of the body and face. It protrudes above the surface, hurts, itches and causes other unpleasant symptoms during growth.

What scars appear after different types of piercings:

  • Face. For decoration, through punctures are used in the cheek area with the installation of labrettes. After removal, a dimple-like trace remains. If the cheek does not overgrow properly, pus and a raised scar will appear. Microdermals are also used on the cheekbones, leaving white, barely noticeable stripes.
  • Lip. A lip piercing scar is inevitable, delicate skin grows slowly and rejection often occurs. Monroe, Madonna, Dahlia leave an imprint like a mole, and it is possible to disguise it with a fly tattoo. The rest of the options may be less noticeable if removed at the first sign of rejection.

  • Nose. In this area, scar tissue may look like a depression or a bulging ball with purulent contents inside.
  • Language. This amazing organ has a unique ability to quickly regenerate due to saliva. The puncture heals quickly and often without a trace.
  • Nipples. Nipple piercing in women can end in failure - clogging of the mammary glands. As a result of the proliferation of atrophied tissue, breastfeeding will be difficult or impossible.
  • Eyebrow. The most painful and dangerous area. There is a high risk of injury and bursting by entangled clothing or hair. The torn wound heals ugly and with visible raised edges.
  • Navel. Earring rejection often develops, and childbirth or pregnancy can leave an ugly keloid scar, which, with an increase in the abdomen, can rupture and go unaesthetic arrows in different directions.

Tattooing is a spicy way to attract male attention, which is used by many women. Alas, what decorates the body at the age of 20 does not always look as great at the age of 40. The tattoo does not fit into the image of a business woman, and sometimes even undermines it. Tongue or navel piercings excite young guys and can easily alienate a mature man. Fortunately, cosmetic advances allow you to get rid of permanent patterns and punctures on your body.

The most painful and oldest way to remove is surgery... By the way, it is also the most traumatic: after the operation, there will be scars in the place of the previous drawing that no laser can hide. Under general anesthesia, the surgeon cuts off the piece of skin on which you once wanted to capture your favorite picture. Healing takes at least a month - you will have to lubricate the cut site with an antiseptic and apply a bandage from an elastic bandage every day.

An ugly scar may remain after cryosurgery... Using tweezers and a cotton pad, the dermatologist covers the entire tattoo with a liquid nitrogen solution. The resulting thermal burn is crusty. It will disappear in about 2-3 weeks.

The most bloodless way of converting an image is camouflage... The skin area is numbed with lidocaine and treated with a flesh-colored dye needle. The dye can cause severe allergies, so a qualified cosmetologist will definitely make a test before the procedure. Feelings, of course, are not the most pleasant, but beauty requires sacrifice. A significant disadvantage of camouflage is a small processing area (the tattoo should occupy an area of ​​no more than 5 * 5 cm). After completing the procedure, be prepared to leave the contours of the tattoo intact. Not happy about the prospect of walking with a whitening image on your shoulder or hip for several months? Use sunscreen on the beach.

Camouflage can also be called the application of a new pattern to an old tattoo. You will like this idea if you, in principle, do not mind drawing on the skin, but want to hide a provocative inscription like the name of an ex-boyfriend. At your request, the tattoo artist will hide the memories of a stormy youth with a floral ornament or ethnic pattern.

A modern method of tattoo removal without scars and pain - laser correction... To completely get rid of the pattern, at least 5-6 sessions are required. The laser beam vaporizes color pigments and damaged epidermis, leaving pink skin on the tattoo site. Depending on the level of the cabin, one beam or a whole beam can be used at the same time. The green laser eliminates yellow, green and blue dyes. Purple - red, orange and black. The break between corrections usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. During the recovery period, antibiotics are indicated for the prevention of suppuration and eczema. Usually, a dermatologist advises additional therapy in the form of peeling with fruit acids and an anti-scar ointment.

Opportunity removing the hole from the piercing depends entirely on how professionally the puncture was performed and whether you looked after it correctly. At least six months should pass between release from the ring and treatment. During this period, try to encourage the hole to grow back on its own. Lubricate the piercing area with Contractubex twice a day and wipe with salicylic acid lotion. To accelerate the reparative processes in the epidermis, intensively massage the skin with a mixture of sea salt and thick sour cream three times a week. Good results are obtained with an oil extract of vitamin E. The only condition is that hands must be thoroughly washed with soap before massage manipulations. Remember how you washed your earring while swimming? Care for an open puncture in the same way.

Has the puncture been overgrown within six months? Then it makes sense to turn to traditional medicine. An expensive option - Plastic surgery... Most often, young mothers who wore a ring in the navel resort to it. While carrying a baby, the skin on the abdomen is stretched, and a large scar appears at the site of a small puncture, surrounded by a "mesh" of stretch marks.

The first stage of splicing - microdermabrasion... It stimulates the production of collagen, which is necessary for the natural repair of punctures. A couple of days after the laser resurfacing, the surgeon will sew the hole. In its place, only a micro-seam will remain, and even that will dissolve after a while.

The most problematic places for piercing are, eyebrow, tongue. Before deciding on an extravagant experiment with your own appearance, think about whether you will cause laughter from those around you in five years.
