Over it wana get rid of it,, help?

Question

hey guys :)

ok im kinda over my labret piercing and i wana get rid of it i know i can just take it out and it will close up but i was just wondering if their was a special cream or something to put over the hole to prevent scaring.

plzz help,, oh n no stupid answers ok

thanks :)

Answer 1

Yeah, let it air outand close first.  Then apply mederma (in the pharmacy aisle) a few times daily.  It smells a little onion-y, and it will make it itch like mad, but it definitely works.

Answer 2

While it's still open...vaseline to keep the skin moist.

Once it's started sealing over, vitamin E from what I've heard.

WikiHow has an article on how to reduce / eliminate scarring. Now, unless you're talking about a post with a significant diameter, the scarring from the hole should be almost non-existant even if you take no steps.

Good Luck!
