A septum piercing is unique from other piercings – it isn’t fully external or internal and, when done properly, doesn’t even pierce any cartilage. Because of this, it follows its own rules. A septum piercing taken out too soon can close up anywhere in the span of a few hours to a few weeks.
Keeping this in view, can you take a septum piercing out and put it back in?
“If you let your piercing heal completely (keeping it in over a year), the hole will probably stay open for the rest of your life,” Thompson says. “The opening will shrink, but you‘ll be able to put something back in should you ever decide you want it back.”
Also, how long does it take for a septum piercing to close after taking it out?
Can I flip my septum on the first day?
Although it’s okay to flip the jewelry up or down occasionally, you should avoid doing this as much as possible. It’s the same as twisting and will irritate your new septum piercing. If you have to flip, leave it flipped up for a while before moving it again.
