The top of the belly button ring has a screw-on ball that helps keep your belly ring intact. Once you’ve located the screw-on ball, start unscrewing the ball while gently holding your belly button ring. In some cases, the ring appears on the inside, but most often, it’s at the top.
Then, should I remove my belly button ring?
How Soon Can You Remove Your Belly Ring? Wait at least 6 months before changing your navel ring. If you do it sooner, you will risk infection because the piercing is likely not fully healed. Some people report changing jewelry after 6 to 8 weeks with no infection, but this doesn’t mean it can’t happen.
Keeping this in consideration, can I take out my belly button piercing if I don’t want it anymore?
If your piercing is fully healed and you’re ready to get rid of it, just take it out and let it be, Banks advises. However, there’s no way to really know how long it will take to close, or even if it will fully close up.
Will a belly button piercing close after 5 years?
Answer: Will my navel piercing hole close over? If you still have a piercing hole after five years then its very unlikely it will now close. The hole has formed a “scar” and is now lined with skin keeping the tract open.
Should I pick the crust off my piercing?
After the first few days your body will excrete lymph as it begins to form the fistula inside your piercing. This lymph ‘crust‘ will likely collect on the jewelry or around the piercing. Do not pick at it. Piercings do tend to swell slightly — some more than others — during healing.
Are navel piercings trashy?
Really, it’s neither attractive nor trashy. Attractive girls are gonna be attractive and the ones that aren’t will stay that way with or without the piercing. But belly button piercings are at least a lot better than any “face rings” that aren’t on the ears, I’ll give it that.
