Well the same way you got it done, you go back and see your professional body piercer and they remove the barbell for you. Now if it's a dermal implant or a micro-dermal then the body piercing studio can't help you, you need to visit your doctor and the implant needs to be cut out. Body piercing studios can not remove dermal implants because the tissue needs to be cut in order to remove the implant (that's a medical procedure and would be practicing medicine without a license highly illegal every where).
