i got my navel pierced a year ago and it got infected because i put a cheap ring in it. i took it out and now i want to get it redone. How long should a person wait to redo a navel piercing?

it all depends on your body. you need to go to your piercer and have him or her look at it.

It depends on how long it was pierced for. If it was in the first month or so, 8 weeks should see it healed and ready to re-pierce. If you had it in longer than that, at least a couple of months. Everybody heals differently, so it's hard to say. Visit your piercing studio and have them check it out, it's much easier to give a good opinion when you can see the skin in question.

how long ago did you take it out? you should wait AT LEAST 6 months to insure that the skin is fully healed before you try to repierce it, and it may be just a little bit more painful the second time, because the scar tissue is thicker than regular skin. if it is still too early to get it re-done though, your piercer will tell you.
good luck!!

im pretty sure its 4 to 6 months. but go talk to your piercer to see what they suggest. but i have heard usually about 6 months .
the bestt thing to do is to talk to yoru piercer about it though

you have waited long enough and don't worry because when you go they will tell if it is to early because if they didn't tell you that it is to early and something goes wrong you could sew them!!!
