My thought is that you should NEVER attempt this on your own.

Answer

It seems to me that no matter what people say children are going to do this to themselves. Be warned serious infection is probable when working on yourself. But to answer the question you need a 14g. or LARGER (larger being preferable) piercing needle. NOT a safety pin!

If u r dead set on piercing your own lip but can't get a profesional needle i would say that (out of personal exsperience) if u do use a safety pin it is sooo much more probable to get an infection but it might work out eventually.(it did for me)But if u decide to be stupid and do it with a safety pin than i wouldn't cry about it later because U WERE WARNED!

Piercing your lip by yourself is it safe to use ice?

You should not self-pierce your lip as it requires proper technique, proper equipment, and also you need to keep everything sanitary. But if you have already done this by yourself then I would say that you can use ice because using ice is considered the best method for healing lip piercing. You can place an ice pack directly on the swollen area for some time and repeat this for a couple of times to get rid of the swelling. If you are facing any kind of major issue then you must consult a professional without wasting any time.
