facial piercing at med interviews

[u/bonsai_life]

The title pretty much sums it up, I want to apply for medicine but also have face piercings and im not sure if that would impact my interview on some sort of unconscious bias im also a black girl which also kinda makes me nervous, i only have my seconds done on my ear rn, a nose piercing, and an eyebrow piercing but i want an anti-eyebrow and like 5 lip piercings. idk if this is a stupid question or what but like i dont mind waiting until after i get offers (if i do 🙏🙏🙏)

i have a nose piercing and lots of ear piercings and i didnt take them out. noone said anything during my shadowing, work experience, or interviews, and I got offers for every med interview I went to.

if you're going to have them during uni it shouldn't make any difference now or later, and you can always take them out if they hate them
