Anyone with experience or piercers on her can share experiences. It’s not for me , for a friend. She’s been quoted £1500 for co2 plus steroid and Botox or £750 for cutting , steroid and compression earring , both include all follow ups, shes unsure what to do.

Is it classed as a cosmetic surgery procedure? Might be info on the RealSelf website.

I had keloid scarring from single ear piercings that never healed. GP referred me to the plastic surgery unit at the local teaching hospital, had those 'compression earrings" made but had to have small surgical procedure on my right ear and new compression earring made. Worked well for me. I know there's a big push on silicon sheets but didn't find it helped at all. NHS were very good, with regular checkups for some months afterwards too

You were lucky getting the nhs to pay

but tbh I wouldn’t trust them with anything like this. She’s going fit the cutting and compression, it’s going to mean 4-5 trips to London but results look better than lazer
