6-8weeks but be careful your piercing is still not fully healed and you want to make sure you put a high quality piece of jewelry straight back in. You also don't want it to heavy or it will pull on the piercing and cause discomfort or weeping.

Also you should look for high quality jewelry that will not tear your piercing internally threaded or snap shut clasps work best since they don't have sharp threads to drag through your piercing.

Changing the jewellery too soon can cause more issues with the piercing and prolong the healing time. Navel piercings take 3 to 6 months to form a light heal and up to a year to become fully healed.

Listen the navel tissue (skin) has very little blood circulation, the only circulation there is just enough to keep the tissue happy and healthy. We are trying to get your body to form tissue ( fistula) and it is very important that that tissue be left a lone as much as possible to form an season on it's own.

Other than daily cleaning which you should be doing every morning in the shower or bath, there is no need to change the jewellery if you are not reacting to it. Changing jewellery will subject the piercing to unnecessary damage. If you really do want the jewellery changed earlier, see your piercer and have him/her change it for you so the tissue is not subjected to needless force.

The navel piercing is the longest healing of all the piercings...Although it can be changed in three to four months, it actually takes a year or longer to completely heal.....I know that some people say you can change it in 4 to 6 weeks, but that's only if you feel real lucky, Now, Do you feel real lucky?

You can only really change your naval jewelry once it has completed healing. A safe estimate for a healed naval piercing would be 6 months to a year. However, everyone's body is different and healing time may be less. There are exceptions, however. If you are allergic to the metal or the bar is the wrong size, you can go to a professional piercing salon and have them change out the jewelry for you in a sterile environment.

After 2-3 months if you change it yourself, any sooner an you have to et your piercer to do it. Its a good idea to have your piercer switch it out the first time because they can size you with the right jewelry. Which will save you some hassle later on :)

Ultimately if you can, and there is no reason to actually change the jewellery other than you wanting something different, I would ask you to wait. The average healing time for a light heal on a navel piercing is 3 to 6 months. All piercing can take up to a full year before they are seasoned toughened enough to handle being changed frequently. The less irritation from changing the better the piercing will look. Please be cautious of where you get your new jewellery from, if the place that's selling it doesn't do body piercing then you need to be concerned about what the jewellery is made of. If you really need to change it because you life will end due to having to wait, go see your professional body piercer and have them change it to ensure it's done safely and in a clean manner.
