How long after you get your tongue ring will it stop swelling?

A complete healing of tongue piercing can take up to 4 weeks.


How long is the barbell ordinarily that is put in when you first get your tongue pierced?

That is based on the tongue size ( not all tongues are created equally ) the thicker the tongue the longer the barbell. This is to make room for swelling. Your professional body piercer will check your tongue and size you for the right barbell to do the job. Two weeks after the piercing is done the swelling will have eased off and a shorter barbell can be put into the piercing to avoid doing dental damage.

How long after a tongue pierced can you have a beer?

I got my tongue pierced over a week ago and my friend got her's a year before me. She drank on the third night after her piercing, and the swelling on her tongue went down. I also did the same, and swelling also went down. Just be careful, cause when you drink beer that early after piercing it, the tongue will tingle from the carbonation. My tongue ring is almost completely healed now.


Can you pierce your tongue with an ear piercer?

No. The ear piercing gun and stud are designed to be used on earlobes only. The tongue is a complex group of two major muscles joined by connective tissue and convered by over 10,000 tastebuds and pain receptors. Tongue piercing is intended to go between the muscle groups at least* (*at minimum) to a depth of 3/4 of an inch from the tip of the tongue. The ear piercing gun will not have the reach nor will the studs be long enough to allow for the swelling the will take place after the piercing is done.


How long is a long tongue bar?

Each barbell is scaled to the size of the tongue to be pierced therefore there is no "actual size" barbell for tongues, this is why you need to have the piercing done by a professional body piercer who will scale and measure the tongue and place the correctly sized barbell into the piercing.

Usually about a week or a week and a half. Depends on your body and what you try to eat during healing


What is difference between a starter barbell tongue piercing and a regular barbell tongue ring?

Nothing. The initial barbell you get is long because it has to accommodate for swelling. Its the same kind of barbell, just longer than what youre gonna wear once the swelling is gone


How long till a tongue piercing heal?

OK simply put a tongue piercing once done will have localized swelling for the first two weeks, once the swelling has eased the barbell may seem some what longer (good time to get the barbell stepped down to protect the teeth). Once the step down barbell is in the piercing will remain slightly swelled for the next 4 weeks. So over all, so long as you don't get a cold* (*this will prolong the healing time) you are looking at a time period of 6 weeks to attain a light heal. This is far from considered healed, professional piercers consider a piercing seasoned and fully healed when the piercing is a full year old.


How long does a hip piercing swell?

Well it depends on who did it and the technique used to get the piercing done and ultimately the aftercare routine you are following, everyone is different and swelling is a variable for each person.


Can a tongue be too short to get a tongue piercing?

For a properly placed tongue piercing the tongue should be able to extend past the lower teeth by at least 3/4 to 1 inch. Piercing a tongue that can be extended can lead to sever dental damage and gun erosion so having something to pierce is always a safer and smarter way to go. Please be sure to leave tongue piercing to trained and experienced professional body piercers. Placement and prepiercing hygiene is critical to ensuring a safe tongue piercing.
