Known nose piercing for a long time, some peoples (in India, for example) it did all segments of the population, from other peoples - only representatives of the nobility. Now the piercing is done for wearing ornaments, and there were times when it was done not so much for decoration, but to indicate the status of the person who carried this decoration.
Contraindications to the puncture of the nose.
Puncture is necessary only in medical institutions or cosmetic clinics, where one-time instruments are used and all the rules of antiseptics and asepsis are observed. Moreover, such a procedure has its own contraindications, which only a doctor can really appreciate.
You can not do a puncture:
- for acute diseases;
- with various skin diseases;
- with severe chronic diseases, when the functions of internal organs are disrupted;
- with intolerance of metals from which the decoration is made;
- when taking hormonal drugs, including hormonal contraceptives - contribute to a decrease in immunity;
- at a diabetes mellitus with the expressed infringements of immunity;

Technique of nose piercing.
In the area of the nose are many small blood vessels and nerve endings, so a puncture of the nose can be accompanied by a slight bleeding and be painful. But since the procedure of the puncture is carried out quickly, there is usually no pronounced pain. Punctures are made only with disposable needles. After the puncture, immediately cut into the hole, pretreated with antiseptic, ornament (rings, horseshoes, carnations from high-grade gold or titanium), which are not removed until the wound completely heals, this occurs for 1, 5 months. During this time, the wound should be periodically treated with antiseptics, without irritating the surrounding tissues.
Repeated puncture (for example, for the second decoration) can be done only after the final healing of the wound, otherwise rough scars may develop in the region of the nose.
Complications after nose piercing.
The absence or presence of complications during the puncture of the nose depends on the patient's immunity and its characteristics, as well as on whom and under what conditions the procedure was carried out.
If a nasal puncture occurs, the following complications may occur:
- Formation of a rough scar in the puncture area: it depends on both the art of the surgeon and the individual characteristics of the patient; can even form keloid scars - shiny pink and red, towering above the surface of the skin, which are difficult to treat and grow rapidly;
- Bleeding: A specially trained medical professional can easily cope with this complication, but when a person who does not have a medical education does the puncture, this can be a serious problem;
- Infection of the wound, inflammatory process: a consequence - rough scars on the skin. Complication of this kind, as a rule, happens in the event that the puncture is made by a person without medical education, who do not know the rules of aseptic and antiseptic drugs, outside the medical institution. And since there are a lot of blood vessels in the nose, a rapid spread of infection to nearby and more distant organs is possible.
Puncture of the nose is not such a simple procedure, therefore, it is necessary to choose the decoration and the medical institution where the puncture will be made. Then the piercing really beautifies the face.
