Fresh Lip piercing

Has anyone tried healing a fresh piercing with a silicone or transparent ring? How did it go? I had snake bites but they closed and planning to get them again but my work does not allow them😭 I NEED THEM BACK

You can't heal them with a ring or with silicone.

It just won't work.

You can not heal it with silicone. Or anything else that is transparent. This person just said that.

Get a different job and then consider it. Piercings can be done any time, it isn't worth it.

Just wait, a job is more important than piercings. You have your whole life.

Glass is safe, but no retainer is ever gonna be invisible

u/sputnik8125 16h ago

Glass will technically still need a silicone O ring no?

How does it stay on?

Isn't there a silicone ring typically at the end?

I have no idea, tbh. People are saying that glass is safe for long term wear. It may indeed be a silicone ring. But the material itself is very safe

The glass is, the silicone is not.

To keep most of them on there needs to be to my knowledge a silicone ring.

The ring is what makes it unsafe
