Yes, and it is simple. Take out the jewelry, and then just keep caring for it as if it had jewelry in it. Keep cleaning it; it can still get infected even without jewelry. It should take it about 3-4 months to heal without jewelry in it, so be patient. also, if you want it to close completely and quickly, put slightly bigger jewellery in for a day (i.e. 1.6mm in 1.2mm piercing), which causes teeny stretches and cuts on the inside, as these heal they close the lip piercing quicker. you will need to care for it as though it were a reasonably new piercing as it is now effectively a new wound, but it will close completely within about 1 1/2-2weeks, like when you first had it done. this may hurt slightly more than just leaving it but its a helluva lot more practical than just waiting it out--->you don't dribble when you brush your teeth anymore or when you smile in the middle of drinking :)

Will your lip piercing close after 4 weeks?

If you've had the piercing for only four weeks then yes, it will close relatively quickly. My lip piercing was two years old and closed up in only a few days, leaving a small scar. If you don't want it to close but do want it to go unnoticed look into piercing retainers.


After lip ring heals can it close up?

Like any hole in the body that wasn't there by design the piercing will close if jewellery is not kept in the piercing. The speed at which the piercing closes will be dictated by the period of time the jewellery has been kept in the piercing, the longer jewellery is worn the longer it will take for the piercing to close up.
