If its new, it'll heal over relatively fast. If it's older, it may or may not heal over. Its pretty common for the inside to heal and the outside to still look open. Just depends. If you want to keep it open, the best way to do that is to always wear jewelry in it.
No, the hole will grow in in a matter of hours. You can order a hider to make it look like you don't have a piercing in your lip.
Yes but there is still a chance that the hole could heal overnight.
Technically, yes (probably), although this would be a really bad idea. Braces could easily pull a lip piercing out, leaving a scar or hole that may not heal well. Also, braces are much harder to keep clean of bacterial biofilms, so getting a lip piercing may increase the risk of an infection in the lip.
As long as the body takes to minimize the piercing and close it, there is no magic solution that will make it close faster. It's just a matter of time.
Salt water or saline solution on the outside of the lip around the piercing. Alcohol-free mouthwash on the inside of the mouth around the piercing
Your lip will heal with the hoop through it. In a couple years, when you remove the hoop you will have a hole in your lip.
Stop touching it so it can heal.
yes, it doesn't effect it at all :) unless you put the lip gloss on the actual piercing hole, then that'd just be silly
Well its not necessarily that they scar, but its almost as if the hole where the piercing was never goes away. Yes the hole closes, but you can still see where the piercing was.
i think a few weeks but no offence but lip peircings are stupid
No, either side is fine.
The skin shouldn't heal over the back of the jewelry. Its common for the piercing to kinda nestle and from a sort of crater in your lip. If its starting ot heal over, go to your piercer and they can give you a longer stud.
