Large Nostrils
Although nostril peircings can be stretched, as with any cartilage area, initially piercing at a higher gauge is highly recommended for those that want them thicker.
The tissue is usually excised using a biopsy (dermal) punch and the slightly larger jewellery inserted. They can be difficult to heal and are prone to small amounts of hypertropic scar tissue, minimising irritation and bumps during healing will help to reduce this from occurring.
Generally done in pairs, they can even be stretched further to give a very unique appearance.
Pain level: Medium-High
Healing Time: 8-16 weeks
Initial Jewellery: Single flared plugs (glass or titanium)
Time before Stretching: 4 months
