Previous versions of this page report a high rejection rate, while the 11 December 2006 edit changes this to a low rejection rate. Anyone have actual numbers for this, or a credible source to sight?

The APP did a study on rejection of surface piercings - I'll dig it up and cite it. Might take a day or so, though. Glowimperial 00:26, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The study was published in issue #33 Fall 2005 of The Point, the APP's journal. It shows over a period of three years, of a total 233 people that had the piercing done, 9 had to have the the bar removed. None of these removals were for migration, but tearing and non-health related reasons. With a successful healing rate of about 97% I'd say that warrants the low rate description.

I just found the study (forgot I was supposed to be looking for it!) and I agree. Properly pierced napes have some of the highest success rates of all surface piercings. I'll cite it in the article. Glowimperial 05:03, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
