How long must you wait to go sunless tanning after recieving a dermal piercing?

Dermal piercings are single point piercings and are not at all like normal piercings that have an entry and exit point so more care needs to be used in looking after them in the early healing stages. The dermal will discharge just like a normal piercing this needs to be rinsed away daily, subjecting the dermal to tanning beds, tanning oils and even spray tanner is not a good idea for the first few weeks post piercing.

The coatings on the skin (spray tanner and tanning oils) should never be allowed to get into the piercing, it's a puncture wound, and will react negatively to these solutions and oils. Ultra violet light doesn't help the healing process and can create a hot spot at the piercing sight damaging the newly pierced tissue. It can take up to three months for the body to heal a dermal anchor, so covering it with a round band-aid while using a tanning booth or bed is a good idea.

Can you get a lip piercing at 39 weeks pregnant?

There are idiots out there that will do the piercing, however that doesn't make them professional body piercers. Then there are idiots that will get piercings of tattoos while pregnant, this too does not mean they are the smartest or most intelligent people in the world. No self respecting professional body piercer will pierce anyone when they are pregnant and or breast feeding. The chances of complications and secondary infections is just not worth the risk to the mother, child or studio insurance policy. So I think I have pointed out that getting a piercing whilst pregnant is not a smart decision made by a mother who cares about herself or her unborn child.

A new body piercing should be cleaned regularly. It should be kept dry, and you should avoid playing with it too much. You can buy piercing cleaner in stores, or you can use first aid alcohol.

Soak with warm water on a cloth until it is not hot anymore. Use hydrogen peroxide to drain the infections, but you should not use it often becuase it will freeze the cells and complicate the healing process.
