Lip piercings generally close up quickly, the precise length of time largely depends on how long the lip has been pierced. If the piercing was done within the last 6 months, it can close in as quickly as a few hours.
In this regard, how do I keep my lip piercing from closing?
There are clear retainers that you can put in that keep the hole from closing! I wouldn’t take out the jewelry completely because it is completely possible for the hole to close up in minutes, however, it usually depends on the person! But just in case, buy a retainer instead of taking it out.
Similarly one may ask, how long after a lip piercing can you give oral?
Ideally, you should wait until you are healed to do anything involving fluids, even with a monogamous partner. You have an open wound in your mouth, so anything in your partner’s saliva or body fluids can more easily be passed to you, and your partner can also be exposed to your blood and more.
