A belly piercing that is still healing can close almost immediately. If it’s already healed, then it can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to several years to close. Some belly piercings may never completely close.
Simply so, will my belly button piercing close if I take it out for a day?
The only thing I suggest is if it’s a new piercing don’t take the ring out until it has healed as it’s an open wound and you can get bacteria in it and if you take the ring out before it’s healed properly you can cause an infection which will sit in the opening when it closes.
Also to know is, how long does it take for a piercing to close up? It’s hard to predict how quickly your body will attempt to close a piercing, but as a general rule, the newer it is, the more likely it will close up. For instance: If your piercing is less than a year old, it can close in a few days, and if your piercing is several years old, it can take several weeks.
