How long to wait after getting your ear lobes pierced to get your cartilage pierced?

Cartilage heals poorly and in many instances does not heal or recover at all after a severe injury Why not?
Cartliage take over a year to heal. When I got mine done it took about a year and a half to heal. This is because your cartilage doesn't produce it's own blood. So when you get it pierced it has to wait to get blood and oxygen from the rest of the body. So this of course is why it takes such a long time to heal

How long does it take for a cartilage piercing to heal?
Six to eight weeks or longer, cartilage is the slowest of all piercing to heal due to the lack of blood circulation in that area. So you need to be patient with the piercing and keep it clean other than that it's a matter of time.
Cartilage pierced 5 weeks agothe location of it bothers me the piercer didnt put it in the helix part of my ear but rather deeper in the cartilage. If i take it out will it heal totally?
Well you can remove it and the tissue portion of the piercing will heal however the incised cartilage will not heal. Cartilage doesn't heal like other areas of the body, it will develope a lump as it attempts to close and heal and this could last for weeks to months depending on the area. As for the duration of time you have had the piercing that's what makes the healing hard to judge. See in hospitals I.V.'s are relocated after 24 to 48 hours so that the body doesn't try to heal around the I.V. cath. Any time you exceed 48 hours your body will start to heal the piercing by forming a tissue tube around the jewellery. So I would guess if you remove the jewellery and leave it out all together it may heal but it will take a considerable period of time because it's cartilage and there is not the blood circulation in that area to support a shorter healing time. That's why cartilage piercings take so long to heal in the first place. Good luck.
