How long before i can change my Monroe piercing after having it pierced?
Lip or labret ( including Monroe) piercings, as you probably already know, are initially pierced with a stud that is just a smidge longer than you will need long term. This is to allow extra room for the expected swelling that occurs during the first 3 days. So, while the lip is swollen, it's usually a perfect fit. As soon as the swelling goes down, the labret stud should be changed to a shorter one. We usually use a 3/8 inch stud to pierce with, and change it to a 5/16 after the swelling subsides. It is best if you are pierced with internally threaded jewelry, so the piercer, or yourself, can use the threaded end of a taper pin to assist in easily swapping out the 2 pieces without losing connection. If you have problems changing your jewelry yourself, you can buy a piercing widget from a company called www.changemypiercing.com. A piercing widget is a three piece tool used to insert jewelry, or change jewelry, and works with 14 gauge internally threaded jewelry.
