If you get a piercing in the upper lip, like a Monroe or a philtrum (sometimes called the Medusa), you can expect to spend at least 2 &#8211; 3 months on healing. These times might vary depending on your body\u2019s ability to heal, whether you maintain aftercare practices, and other factors. Sometimes, healing takes longer even if you do everything right.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We recommend visiting a piercer to have them confirm that healing is complete before stopping aftercare practices. It will appear healed before the piercing tunnel has fully formed, and you need an expert eye to tell if healing is complete.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are lip piercing aftercare practices?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To keep your piercing free from infection, gently clean it with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neilmedpac.com\/usa\/shop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">piercing aftercare saline solution<\/a> 2 &#8211; 3 times daily. You can do this by spraying a clean cotton swab or paper towel with the saline solution and gently wiping the front and back of the piercing. Afterward, take a fresh cotton swab and pat the front of the piercing dry.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When you first get pierced, your piercer will fit you with a piece of jewelry large enough to accommodate swelling. While this is common practice for all piercing types, the larger jewelry in a lip piercing poses a unique problem: it\u2019s all too easy to accidentally bite down on the jewelry. Take extra care in the first few days after the piercing as you get used to the jewelry\u2014people have been known to accidentally chip a tooth. Once swelling has gone down, it\u2019s a good idea to visit your piercer and get fit with a smaller piece that poses less of a chomping risk. In the first week or so, you should also choose soft foods while you get used to the jewelry. Cold drinks and food can help with any swelling and discomfort as well.<\/p>\r\n<div id=\"attachment_22677\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22677\" class=\"size-full wp-image-22677\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neilmedpac.com\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Woman-with-labret-piercing.jpg\" alt=\"Woman with labret piercing\" width=\"1000\" height=\"838\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.neilmedpac.com\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Woman-with-labret-piercing.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.neilmedpac.com\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Woman-with-labret-piercing-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.neilmedpac.com\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Woman-with-labret-piercing-768x644.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.neilmedpac.com\/usa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Woman-with-labret-piercing-600x503.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-22677\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@omerhaktan?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">\u00d6mer Haktan Bulut<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/s\/photos\/piercing?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/p><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What am I not allowed to do after getting my lip pierced?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>During healing, you\u2019ll have a laundry list of don&#8217;ts in order to ensure safe healing. Here are the biggest ones.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>No swimming\/baths\/standing water. <\/strong>New piercings should be kept dry, which means showers only. When you get out of the shower, be sure to carefully and completely dry your piercing.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Try to talk as little as possible at first.<\/strong> When you talk, the jewelry will move around which could damage the skin and create scar tissue. The larger initial jewelry can also rub against your teeth and gums, causing issues.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Do your best not to play with the jewelry.<\/strong> It\u2019s incredibly easy to start absentmindedly playing with the jewelry in your mouth, and while your piercing is healing, that could damage the delicate skin. Try to remain mindful, especially in the first few weeks after getting pierced.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>No kissing or intimate activities involving the lips.<\/strong> Not only does this move the jewelry around, but it also passes bacteria between you and your partner that could be harmful to your healing piercing. If you must kiss, do so very carefully.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t share cups and eating utensils.<\/strong> This can pass bacteria between you and the sharer.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Avoid acidic and spicy foods. <\/strong>Basically, keep away from anything that you wouldn\u2019t want to rub on an open wound. It\u2019s going to hurt, and it could irritate the piercing.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The list might seem long, but the bottom line is that you\u2019re healing a wound, albeit a small one. To avoid scarring or complications, you simply need to take care of your body, get some rest, and maintain practices similar to what you would do if you had a cold or any other minor wound.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When healing a lip piercing, you have to be a little more mindful than with other piercing types. The good news is that the healing time isn\u2019t too substantial, and you\u2019ll find that once you get the hang of your new lip piercing, aftercare shouldn\u2019t be difficult. And, soon you\u2019ll have an awesome lip piercing that you can enjoy for years.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve recently gotten a lip piercing or you\u2019re considering getting a lip piercing, then you\u2019ve come to the right place.
