My birthday is in 6 months exactly from today, and I'll be turning 14 years old. It is legal to have piercings at the age of 14 if I have ID (birth certificate/health care card) and my legal guardian. So I want to know how much 2 microdermals on each side on my collar bones (To make it look like surface piercings) would cost.

Also do microdermals really have less chance of rejection compared to surface piercings? and also do I have to get it removed by surgery if I keep it in for a long time and how long is that?
Whats the basic care for it? I know I'm able to get it because "Bridge, nipple, and genital piercings are 18+ only, and navel and eyebrow piercings are 16+, no exceptions."
Update:Also I looked at the pricing, it says "$30 for normal, 60$ for genital, and 10$ for lobes (up to 12g)"
and another place I looked at said it could range from 35 to 90 just for the piercing so thats 360 right there if it's 90.
but it said "For two of the same piercing, we only charge you 20$ so it saves you money to get them both done" so idk if that counts for 4 of the same piercing because then it would be like 220.
and idk if they can put balls/ball looking things instead of just the flat metal thing on the microdermal, so thats a good question.

the cost would depend on where you go, some places do it for $75+ (each)to have one done and some do it for $15..i wouldn't recommend getting a dermal done for only 15 bucks, for reasons i think we both know.
Surface piercings almost always reject. Microdermals are way less likely to reject. Microdermals are pretty much permanent.
do not use any soap of any kind, ever. It dries out your healing skin.
Dont ever use any ointments of any kind (like polysporin,rubbing alcohol, neosporin, bactrin, )
buy H20 ocean spray to apply 3-6 times a day but i suggest you make your own soaks at home. You can search youtube videos on how to make it, its really simple.
What Nick said.
But also; getting them out is pretty gruesome. They have to cut your skin and literally rip it out. Just take that into consideration.
