Individuals having keloidal tendency, can have keloid at any trauma site , including body piercing , so better avoid nose piercing or chances can be minimised with avoidance of infection and local care at piercing site, many of the dermatologist do ear and nose piercing , you can contact nearby dermatologist for safe nose piercing
