Is it possible to re-pierce a closed up piercing?

In most cases, yes, it is possible to re-pierce a closed-up piercing. However, it is important to note that this should only be done by a professional piercer who has experience in re-piercing.

The process of re-piercing a closed-up piercing is similar to getting a new piercing. The piercer will first use a needle to mark the spot where the piercing will go. Then, they will use a piercing needle or cannula to create a new hole. Finally, they will insert the jewelry.

Re-piercing a closed-up piercing can be more painful than getting a new piercing, as the tissue may be more sensitive. It is also important to note that there is a greater risk of infection when re-piercing a closed-up piercing.

For these reasons, it is important to carefully consider whether or not you want to re-pierce a closed-up piercing. If you decide to go ahead with the procedure, make sure to choose a reputable piercer who can provide you with aftercare instructions.

Here are some tips for aftercare of a re-pierced hole:

* Clean the piercing with saline solution twice a day.

* Avoid touching or playing with the piercing.

* Avoid swimming, bathing in chlorinated water, or sun exposure until the piercing is fully healed.

* Watch for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, or discharge.

* If you experience any problems with the piercing, contact your piercer immediately.
