I used to have lip piercings but took the rings out about a year ago. It looks as if I still have the hole...could I put a ring back in them? Or is it to late? I'm bored with my face now and want them back! Thanks in advance.

you can try to put them back if not dont force it just get it re pierced
it all depends on how long you had the piercing in in the first place if it was over a year then you should be able to get it back in as the hole will have healed and will never close up
good luck i hope it goes back in for you

it all depends how long u had the piercing to begin with, ive had my lip pierced for 7 years now and i can take it out for weeks and it wont close. if u had ur piercing for a very long time theres a chance that there may still be a small hole there, try and put something very small through, like an earring stud just to see if the hole is there or not, work it around but dont force it thru, if u can find the other end and can slip it thru then hooray for u! try leaving it in for a while then work up to a larger piercing, if u cant get thru with a small stud its grown over and u may need to get it re pierced if u want it/them again.

As with any piercing, the hole will close. It may appear that you have a hole still, because the hole is probably pretty thick. If you do choose to put a ring back in, be aware that you will most likely have to push it threw regrown tissue. Also, if you do that, you run a HIGH risk for infection, which will be painful.
I would suggest going to a piercing parlor and asking them to re-pierce it in the same place. It will be sanitary. You will probably even get a price reduction, as it is not a brand new piercing and you have your own rings.
I hope this helps and good luck.

They all close. I only know 1 person that can still put anythin g through it today, with great difficult of course. Some people have had piercings for years so they may be able to use it. I have had lip pierced 3x and it is closed. Hope this helps. I know much about tats and piercings if you have anymore questions. Feel free.

Depending on how long you had them before taking out the jewelry, it may just be shrunk instead of closed. Either way, your best bet is to go visit your piercer and have them see what the case is. If it's shrunk, you will need to taper it open again (best to have this done by a pro), if it's closed they can re-pierce it for you.

Not likely. Go get them re-pierced. DON'T try to shove some rings through the holes. You'll do more damage than good.

It depends on how long you had it before. But you really risk infection trying to put it back through. Chances are it's closed, might as well just get it repierced.

Yes, you can put the rings back in.. but it would hurt.. I'd try a stud for 24 hours, then put your rings in again

its definatly closed and further more if you try to put it through the same spot its gonna hurt 10 times worse then it did because now your going through scarred tissue.
