Take a cartilage piercing out like any other ear piercing, get a grip of one hand on the jewel part of the earring and the other hand on the backing and slowly pull hand #1 out pushing away from the face. While this is occurring, take hand #2 and push the backing in a twisty motion away from the face. Do NOT take out a cartilage piercing if not in for 1 full year to 1.5 years in the risk of infection. If already infected, contact your physician and have him/her remove it. Do not do so yourself! :) good luck!

How long does it take for the swelling to go down on a dimple piercing?
For the basic oral piercings, ie. lip piercing, monroe, labret etc etc; the swelling begins to go down after a few days. Since the cartilage for a dimple piercing is much thicker than that of a lip piercing, the swelling will take a little bit longer to go down. Usually 3-10 days before the swelling begins to go down, depending on how much you play with the jewelery, irritate the piercing, and even how you clean it can all alter the amount of time your piercing is swollen for!
