Body Piercing Estimated Healing Time

Body Piercing Estimated Piercing Healing Time

Raise Your Inner Vibration!

There are two healing times with every piercing. What that means is that the first healing time consists of how long it takes until you should change your jewelry. The second healing time is how long it takes for your piercing tissue to toughen up. 

That being said... below is an estimated first healing body piercing chart. It can take between 1-3 years for a piercings tissue to fully heal and toughen up.

Please keep in mind that every person's body and body chemistry is different. Some people heal faster than others (example: people with diabetes can take twice as long to heal.)

It is important to use proper and safe cleaning proceedures, to help aid with quick healing.

It is NOT suggested to change your jewelry any sooner, unless otherwise directed, for 4-6 weeks.

Changing your jewelry to early can result in swelling, irriation or possible infection.
