Your Microdermal/ Skin diver piercing will have a surgical dressing covering it. This initial dressing must remain on for the first 48 hours (if it should accidently come off simply re-cover with a new dressing). When the 48 hours is up you must remove the dressing (soaking the area in warm water first is advisable).
