The kind of piercing you have will dictate how well it will close up. Rob Banks, a piercer at Elite Jewelry Co. on Saint Mark’s Place in New York City, explains to me in an interview at the shop that belly button, eyebrow, and Monroe or lip piercings all leave deep scars, which makes them harder to fully close.
Likewise, people ask, how quickly do lip piercings close up?
around three months
Thereof, how long should a Monroe piercing be red? The Monroe piercing may be red after being pierced. It takes 2-3 months to heal during which time you may experience redness, itchiness, and initially some swelling. How long your piercing stays red may depend on the aftercare. Monroe piercing swelling is completely normal and should reduce after a week.
