that can be done, but it has to be heated to almost the point of melting, I use a cautery pen for this, then allowed to cool, otherwise it won't hold it's shape. The one in your arm has obviously straightened out, or he didn't make the risers long enough.......
just bending them by hand doesn't work.....either way, I don't think that is going to work for you.... keep an eye on it.......tight pressure like that will retain fluid and wound discharge |

there isn't alot of preasure on it now, alot of the swelling seems to have gone down and its not at all painful now. there is still quite a bit of weeping but i think it is getting better.
thankies 'tana. x

just had to ask sweetie, what ever happened with your surface piercing on your arm? i just got one an inch below my Navel, had it three days (pic in the surface/navel section of piercings), and its healing fine. but i have just come to terms that this is a temp piercing, and its now a marathon race to see how long before my body does away with it. it is fun to have for the short term, but i know it wont last

i went into my surface piercing knowing it would be short term, i wanted the experience of getting a surface piercing. i knew going into it if i got it to last two weeks i was accomplishing something, it didnt last that long, oh well. i know the trama me bumping into it, and my bf bumping into it, as well as sleeping on my gut, well, i knew b4 hand it wouldnt last. so, have i learned anything from the experience? ummmmm, i learned i can endure tha pain of surface piercings, to take lots of pics, and to enjoy it while its there, nothing is guaranteed in life, and that especially holds true to surface piercings

Punch + taper people! it's the future of surface work! I haven't had any p+t done yet, but i've had close to a dozen surface piercings, all done with high quality surface bars and the only ones that stayed are the ones on my face. My vert. bridge is my baby. Christina died because she was being chaffed (yes, i talk about my piercings in 3rd person! ) It's been almost a year since i've had my vert bridge. It's not red. It's not crusty. It hasnt' been swollen since it was 4 days old. I really do like the LITFA aftercare for surface piercings (... Leave It The Fuck Alone!). works well for me! I find tedious and compulsive cleaning can leave it irritated.

it lasted for about two weeks, in the end people close to me convinced me to take it out, cos it was starting to look really sore and i kept catching it on everything and i knew there was no way it was gonna heal.
