It depends on how the piercing was taken care of while you had it. If it repetatively got infected, severely irritated or injured, then significant scarring can occur. If it was taken care of properly and gave little to no problems, scarring should be minimal.

Do piercings ever fully close?

Depends on how long you have them, and what kind they are. Piercings in the cartilage, lip and ear lobe rarely close completely, they scar while new skin might grow over the hole, the cartilage remains shattered. Tongue piercings heal quickly, because the tongue is a muscle. Dermal piercings also heal better than cartilage, but can leave a scar.

Do leob piercings scar?

All piercings scar that's how the hole stays open, a tunnel of scar tissue called a fistula forms around the jewellery.

Depending on the gauge of your jewellery the scar will be almost invisible.

What should people avoid being pierced?

Surface piercings. Surface piercings have a very high rate of rejection -- about 98%. They almost always reject and usually never heal. Rejection is very nasty, painful, and will leave a significant scar. They are not worth the hassle, so I would say they are the ones that you should avoid.

How long will it take nipple piercings to get enough scar tissue to never close up?

There's no way to be sure honestly. Some people can have piercings for years that never fully heal to the point that they don't close. If you have other piercings that have healed to that point, you can use that as a gauge but otherwise, don't remove the jewelry unless you want to risk losing the piercing :)
