Detailed answer

Exfoliating the skin around a lip piercing can cause irritation, redness, and potential damage to the piercing. The exfoliation process can disrupt the healing process and increase the risk of infection. It is important to allow the piercing to heal properly before introducing any exfoliation treatments. If you are concerned about dead skin or dryness around the lip piercing area, it is recommended to gently cleanse the area with a mild cleanser and moisturize regularly. However, it's always best to consult with your piercer or dermatologist for personalized advice based on your specific situation.
