I took my surfacepiercings out a month ago and now I have 2 little scars on that place , my question is , if it is possible to get 2 micro dermals on those scars from my surface or would this make it easier to reject afterwards ?

It would be possible to have microdermals done where the two scars from your surface piercing are. However, scar tissue can make it harder to get the microdermal jewelry in place and can make it harder for it to sit flush/correctly. If the jewelry isn’t seated properly, there is going to be a higher chance of rejection and/or difficult healing.
If there is a way to place the microdermals so that they will cover the old scars but be away from scar tissue, that would be best. Of course, that would then leave you with two sets of scars should you remove the microdermals at some point.

I had a sternum piercing done with PTFE and it didn’t go too well, so when i took it out it left horrible scaring, I’ve now got Two microdermals there instead, no problems, they’re a little bit more raised than normal but other than that they were perfectly fine.
Joseph on November 3rd, 2007 at 3:37 pmI’ve actually done this exact thing. My surface piercing never sat well so I took it out and then found out about microdermals. Word of warning: if your surface bar wasnt sitting well in that area, AND you want to pierce in the scar tissue, it is likely it wont stay. While I have since moved my microdermals to a similar place, it seemed, at least for me, that placing them right on the scar tissue not only hurt (a LOT) but left me with more scarring when I had to take them out and move them to more pliable skin. Good luck!
