All piercings scar that's how the hole stays open, a tunnel of scar tissue called a fistula forms around the jewellery.

If you're wondering whether a noticeable mark will be left after you allow the piercing to close up, the answer is probably. Depending on the gauge of your jewellery the scar will be almost invisible.

Do piercings ever fully close?

Depends on how long you have them, and what kind they are. Piercings in the cartilage, lip and ear lobe rarely close completely, they scar while new skin might grow over the hole, the cartilage remains shattered. Tongue piercings heal quickly, because the tongue is a muscle. Dermal piercings also heal better than cartilage, but can leave a scar.

Will your belly button reject the piercing if you repierce scar tissue?

It might, but not only because of the scar tissue. Many people just cant heal or keep navel piercings. They are surface piercings so they can be difficult to heal. If its only rejected once, go ahead and give it a try. If its rejected multiple times, you might not be able to keep one so it would be a waste of money :)

How long will it take nipple piercings to get enough scar tissue to never close up?

There's no way to be sure honestly. Some people can have piercings for years that never fully heal to the point that they don't close. If you have other piercings that have healed to that point, you can use that as a gauge but otherwise, don't remove the jewelry unless you want to risk losing the piercing :)


Which piercing would be best for someone who scars easily?

If you scar easily, you definitely do not want any piercings on your face. Significant scarring would not look good on anyone's face. One of the most common "unseen" piercings is the navel, so that might be a good one for you to get. I dont know how you feel about nipple and genital piercings, but they are always options too. Good luck!
