Those with well-established piercings have a third alternative for moisturizing the skin around their piercings. You can apply jojoba oil once or twice a day, massaging it gently into the skin around your piercings to take advantage of its natural moisturizing properties without clogging your fistulas.
Also, how do I moisturize my nose piercing?
Ask the piercing expert what moisturizer will work best. For example, they might recommend using a combination of tea tree oil and coconut oil (both unrefined). Use a fresh cotton swab to apply twice daily. Don’t use stronger antiseptics if it seems like an infection is setting in; saline solution is enough.
People also ask, why is the skin around my nose piercing hard? A keloid is a form of scarring. The NHS says it is when collagen “gathers around damaged skin and builds up to help the wound seal over.” It can appear shiny, hairless, raised, hard and rubbery. Nice. Keloids are more common in people with dark skin but thankfully they do tend to fade and reduce over time.
