Nip piercings for altered b00b13s

Hey so I'm considering getting my nipples pierced. I had a significant reduction surgery 3 years ago and want to pierce them but wondered if it was safer to self pierce now than it would have been if I kept the stock build.

Thoughts?

Pls note I'm not actually considering doing it myself on a serious level. Just gauging what I should be factoring in when/if I do go this direction.
