What gauge is a nose piercing? The most common gauges for nose piercings are 18G and 20G. However, piercers will often use a slightly larger needle (about 16G) to make healing easier. The larger hole allows for some swelling and prevents the healing from getting too tight as it heals. That said, make sure to listen to your piercer! Experienced piercers will be able to recommend the right gauge to avoid rejection or unnecessary complications.

Potential risks of nose piercing Before you get a piercing, it's important to know the risks. Here are some common ones:

1. Infected nose piercing You can expect some swelling and redness after a piercing. But if the redness persists or gets worse and you notice extra swelling and/or pus around the area, it's likely infected.

How to treat an infected nose piercing? If the infection is mild, you can usually get rid of it by washing the piercing two to three times a day. Use isopropyl alcohol, betadine, diluted hydrogen peroxide, or another antiseptic. Applying antibiotic ointment after washing it. If the infection persists or gets worse, you may want to see a doctor.

1. Nose piercing bump Typically, a raised red bump around the nose piercing is a sign of infection. Make sure to use the treatments above to control the nose piercing bump -- if it worsens, you could develop a severe systemic infection. And as a side note, with bumps or other signs of infection, don't remove the piercing! That can cause the hole to close, sealing in the infection.

2. Keloid and scar on nose piercing Untreated infections can lead to scar tissue around the piercing. And sometimes, if left untreated, an infection will lead to a buildup of fibrous tissue that causes a scar called a keloid. Keloids are uncommon, but they can be hard to treat. If you have a noticeable keloid, be sure to consult with a dermatologist for treatment advice.
