"Hi, I'm Noel Garcia, the owner of New Age Body Piercing, Coconut Grove, Miami. In this clip, I'm going to show how to get rid of eyebrow scars. Eyebrow scars, you really can't get away from getting over them that much especially if you had a really bad piercing; a very shallow piercing; usually those are the worst. When an eyebrow piercing is shallow; that means there's not enough skin; there's not enough skin between the two point of the piercing and that's always a guarantee to come out. Usually there's two things you can use; the ring or an eyebrow barbell. The eyebrow barbell is safer a hundred percent more. Why? It's not going to get caught up on brushes, on things, on clothes; you know; when you're sleeping, that kind of stuff. The ring it tends to get caught up in a lot more stuff and it tends to put more down on the eyebrow. Okay. She used to have an eyebrow piercing but it was done very nicely, away from the points. So there was plenty of skin in the middle and then you go, once you can actually won't see a scar ever; especially on girls 'cause you got thin eyebrows and stuff; on guys even if they got thick eyebrows, try to stay around the lines of the hair. That way you don't get a scar; if you get a scar. Anyway, to prevent any of that; if you get your eyebrow pierced and five days have gone by and it's very red; seven days is gone and it's still very red, especially between the points of the piercing; that's a very good sign to remove right then and now. Okay. Eyebrow piercings, you can take care of them, but not when you got seven days and this piercing is red, red, red and it's not getting any better. That's a very good sign to remove your eyebrow piercing very fast. That way you don't get a scar; that way you prevent getting a scar and that way it's not going to irritate the whole eyebrow area. And that's actually a good sign to take it out and that's a good way to prevent getting a scar on your eyebrow piercing. And this has been how to take care of your eyebrow piercing scars."
