Actually that's one of the good things about piercings, is that they are removable. I've removed several piercings that I later decided I didn't want. Yes, it left a scar, but the scars are so tiny that they are hardly noticeable. It's just two little dots where the peircing was.
That is probably true, if you have one or two piercings ... just like with pierced ears. I was talking about the people that have like twenty piercings on their face. So, each one leaves two small scars ... that's forty scars on your face. That IS going to be noticeable.
