Hi there,

Ive got an appointment in 3 days to get microdermals in my nape and Ive come down with a pretty bad cold.

Ive been taking multi vitamins for 2 weeks now (in preparation for the piercing) an have loaded up on cold and flu tablets to fight the cold and it seems to be going ok.

My question is, should i postpone my appointment until after my cold is gone?

or will it be ok to go ahead with??

cheeeeeeers!!

Wow! Good for you for taking extra precautions in actually planning to have this procedure done!
You’re right to assume that while your body is under stress as a result of your illness your immune system may take a toll after having a dermal anchor done.

If you have the option (and patience!) to ride out your cold and postpone your appointment, that would definitely be your best route to take.

That said, many people don’t have the same patience you do and will opt to have the piercing done anyway and will likely be fine after the fact.

Ensuring your body is in prime physical and mental condition will always make for a better piercing procedure and healing experience.
