How Long Does Pierced Ear Take To Close?
Question: Hello,
I got my ears pierced 15 days ago, and now think that they are very uneven. I want to get then re pierced, so will they(hole) completely close or am I too late? and how much time will this be in? Btw I want to get them just 1 mm lower than my piercings now; and I've heard that my earholes will become bigger if i get them so close to my previous ones? Also will they close a 100%?
