Healing Time

Navel piercings typically take 6-12 months to heal completely, making them one of the longer-healing piercings. The healing time depends on your anatomy, aftercare routine, and lifestyle factors. Initial healing occurs in 6-8 weeks, but complete healing takes much longer. Our experienced piercers will provide specific healing timeline information during your consultation.

Jewelry Options

We offer a stunning selection of navel jewelry including curved barbells with decorative tops, dangle designs, and premium materials like surgical steel, titanium, and gold. Choose from Swarovski crystals, opals, gems, and unique artistic designs. Our piercers will help you select the perfect jewelry for your style and anatomy.

Aftercare

Navel piercings require consistent aftercare due to their location and long healing time. Clean twice daily with sterile saline solution, avoid tight clothing that rubs the piercing, and be careful during physical activities. Swimming should be avoided during initial healing. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and are always available to answer questions during your healing journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a navel piercing hurt?

Do I have the right anatomy for a navel piercing?

Can I exercise with a new navel piercing?

What clothing should I avoid with a new navel piercing?

When can I change my navel jewelry?

Can I change my jewelry before it's fully healed?

I think my piercing might be infected or unhappy - what should I do?

It could be, but often times it is caused by irritation such as bumping, catching, playing with, clothing choices or sleeping on the piercing. Any of these can lead to the jewelry not fitting correctly and this in turn can cause more swelling and redness. We have several solutions to fixing the issues depending on the situation and your body type. We start with the most general and from there narrow it down to the best fit for you. We can usually get any issue under control without losing the piercing but we want to be as proactive as possible, so please come see us with any concerns and if we think you need to see a Dr. we will let you know.

What is the normal drainage from a new piercing?

You may notice some drainage coming from a new piercing in it's healing phase. While this is normal for any new piercing(some more than others) the drainage should be a yellowish brown color often containing lymph fluid, sebum, and possibly some blood. Please be sure to rinse thoroughly in the bath or shower removing as much as possible without causing movement to the piercing. If you are ever unsure whether your piercing is healthy and happy please don't hesitate coming by the shop so a piercer can take a look. We would rather see you too much than not enough.
