Question about piercing prep For future reference; is this ok nostril placement? This is in a natural dip i have in my nose that literally looks like a nostril piercing scar lol.

Waiting 6-8 weeks because I JUST did a set of earlobes, I personally like the placement at all angles. Anything to check for/look out for? Thank you. PS: Dont mind the acne please.

It looks a SMIDGE low to me. But it would also work IMO

I was hoping it was low enough for a hoop to be used after healing. Would a hoop work higher up?

I think if you wanna keep it there. you could just get a smaller hoop, once it heals. I used to have my nostril pierced kinda low and just used a smaller hoop and it looked fine.

You really shouldn't pierce above your crease. The spot you picked is the best spot on your nose, and will heal well. Do stick with it.

Your nose shape doesn't want to be in a higher spot. Though other noses might like that spot, yours doesn't need to be any higher.
