Do yall think kenjaku was cleaning suguru’s gauges? Like there’s maintenance for gauges, was kenjaku cleaning them before bed? Would he massage the lobe? Would he clean the jewelry? I need answers. This has been keeping me up.

Oh wow! I didn't think they made ones that went all the way through. But yeh please give me the deets on that.
Sorry this took a hot minute, I was at work. Anyways! I have loads to say about the dimple piercing. First I only have one on my left cheek because I only have one dimple naturally and I like asymmetry, So even though that’s not the norm I totally recommend doing one at a time because I realized after the fact how FUCKED I would have been during the healing process if I had done both like a normal person lmao I don’t know HOW I would have been able to eat or brush my teeth because even with one whole side of my face free and piercing less it was a hassle to chew and I love food.
Aside from that, the actual jewelry itself is a long bar, about an inch or a bit longer if I’m not mistaken. It’s the same kind they use for vertical tongue piercings (which I also have) and it has a ball on each end. It’s that long to accommodate swelling for the first few weeks and then later you should get it changed for a shorter bar and a flat end in the inside so you don’t accidentally bite down on the ball and break your teeth lol why do they give you a ball on each end if you’re generally trying to avoid dental bills like most people? Because the flat side could potentially sink deep into your swollen cheek and the flesh could heal over it and that would SUCK.
The ball can create a depression on the inside which I had to accept is just normal lol.
Now I never changed the jewelry out for something shorter because of a couple reasons. 98% of the time the length and ball don’t bother me, my mouth has adjusted to having it there I guess, but more importantly ITS BEEN FOR FUCKING EVER AND IT WONT FUCKING HEAL RIGHT.
OKAY. SO. I’ve had this cheek piercing for at least two years now. GRANTED I got it re-pierced after the first time, because my dumbass rolled over in my sleep, and slept flat on it, and caused myself lots of pain, more swelling, and such. But it was only about a month or so after the original, (piercing it the second time hurt more thanks to scar tissue)
Anyways, this thing is super fussy. I kind of really wish I would have done more research, because they are notorious for not healing 100% . (I met a girl who had her dimple scars and told me she took them out after three years for the same reason)
it’s not that my body rejects it, because there are plenty of times that it is just perfect! But some days (especially if I play with it or touch it, cough, don’t do that) it’ll get infected and it’ll puss a little bit (gross I know) right now it’s probably the worst it’s ever been, it has like a bump near the site and to be honest I’m not doing jack to fix it. salt water rinses help and are what you need to clean it with multiple times a day when it’s fresh, but I’m just annoyed at this point and let it do its thing.
I’ve come to the realization that I specifically might have an abscess underneath because it swells up and goes down and sometimes if I take a needle to it (don’t do that either) it’ll drain and blah blah blah it looks a hell of a lot like an abscess.
At the end of the day I should probably go to a dermatologist but I don’t because no doctor is a fan of piercings especially on your face and bitch I like it so…
Additional warnings to be noted in general but not anything that happened to me, go to someone who’s done them before (cheek piercings aren’t as common as ear piercings so even an experienced piercer might not have done these before) because if they pierce a salivary gland in your cheek you could get saliva drooling out of the piercing site on the outside and nobody wants that.
In general do your research, google migration and rejection, look at the ratings on your place of choice, if possible go somewhere a friend you know has been, and talk to your piercer, ask questions, ask about how to clean it properly what you can and can’t do (no spicy foods for example) and hell see if you can add them on social media. One of my piercers allowed me to add them on Instagram and I messaged them when I had a scare with my tongue piercing. Most people who are professionals will have no problem with you coming back to them for concerns and stuff.
Legit I’m a chatterbox. Sorry! Let me know if there’s anything else you want to know because clearly I have no problem talking your ear off.
Ok so I have my hips pierced. I got them pierced last summer and I was really good with doing my saline soaks three times a day except when I worked nine hour shifts on the weekends. I got lazy once they seemed almost healed so I stopped soaking them and now they don't look like they're too far gone but they definitely don't look good. I'm doing my best to remember to get three soaks in a day but is there anything else I can do besides buying H2Ocean? Any ointments or anything I can put on them? All help is greatly appreciated.
