Hi, I got my navel pierced last week, and I was wondering how long would rejection take?

Question

I can't tell if the skin that is over the bar is gettin thinner.

If my body was rejecting it how long would it take ?

thankyou x

Answer 1

on some people it can take days, but on others it could take months, or even years before it starts to reject, if the piercing is moving and you can see a 'trail' of sorts then it probably is rejecting, but if it isn't and it doesn't hurt badly then your fine, just give it a while before you do anything, if your concerned go back to where you got it pierced, they will be able to tell you for sure.

Answer 2

My daughter had hers for nine years before she had a problem. They did warn her about rejection when she got it done but they also said it may take a long time. How deeply the piercing was done can have an impact on how long it takes. That thinning may just be any residual swelling having dissipated.

Answer 3

well just move the bar around and make sure it is off th skin

i had to re peirce mine 3 times i did it though but clean it and i got mine peirced uhmm about in feb.. and it is still not healed just make sure u keep it clean and move it around a lot
