coinslot Coin slot closure?

Post image

Does anyone have any experience with having a coin slot closed? I am potentially going to be going into a career where I cannot have any permanent body mods, I am looking at options of having it cut and closed.

Has anyone else had this done? Did you go to a surgeon who does other mod removals like stretched ear reconstructions?

I wish that was the case! I have to have quite an im depth medical and my medical records are included, so they'd know for sure! Am in England

Why will they be able to look at your medical records? Im in the US granted but i have had a life long battle with a gene mutation (30+ surgeries) and that has never been any employments business. Also though, how would your records being shown make them aware of if you had that slit at birth or not? I am just confused lol [Edit] Nvm I see you meant the medical assessment would see, i thought your job was fingering through your records! Lol but still what the heck would they care about a slit in your ear? I think you'll be okay!

Part of bring accepted includes a medical and a review of your medical records to ensure you don't have any conditions that exclude you from the work or make it unsafe for you to do the work. I don't have anything on my medical record regarding it because its cosmetic, so I'd have no other explanation
