Healing Time

 

The following is a list of approximate healing times for various fresh piercings. These times will vary according to the individual, method of piercing, aftercare, jewelry worn, and many other factors. As a general rule, if your piercing is still "tender" then it is still healing and we do not reccomend you change your jewelry during this time.

Ear lobe - 6 to 8 weeks

Ear cartilage - 4 months to 1 year

Eyebrow - 6 to 8 weeks

Nostril - 2 to 4 months

Nasal septum - 6 to 8 months

Nasal bridge - 8 to 10 weeks

Tongue - 4 weeks

Lip - 2 to 3 months

Nipple - 3 to 6 months

Navel - 4 months to 1 year

Female genitalia - 4 to 10 weeks

Male genitalia - 4 weeks to 6 months
