If your belly button piercing is completely healed but you still have bruising around the area, there are a few steps you can take to help the bruising go away more quickly:
Apply cold compresses: Use a cold pack or a clean cloth soaked in cold water and apply it to the bruised area for about 15-20 minutes several times a day. This can help reduce inflammation and alleviate bruising.
Arnica gel or cream: Arnica is a natural remedy known for its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to reduce bruising. You can apply arnica gel or cream to the bruised area several times a day to help speed up the healing process.
Avoid irritating the area: Try to avoid any activities or clothing that may irritate or rub against the bruised area, as this can prolong the healing process.
Keep the area elevated: Elevating the affected area above the level of your heart can help reduce swelling and improve blood circulation, which can aid in the healing of the bruise.
Eat a healthy diet: Make sure you're getting enough nutrients in your diet, particularly vitamin C and vitamin K, which are important for skin health and can help promote faster healing of bruises.
Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help flush toxins out of your body and promote overall healing.
If the bruising persists or worsens despite these measures, or if you experience any other concerning symptoms such as increasing pain, redness, or discharge from the piercing site, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.

Does a belly button piercing hurt more then a lip piercing?
I have both my lip and belly button pierced. I had my belly button pierced with a hoop and my lip pierced with a bar/stud. The belly button was more irritating then the lip because a hoop piercing requires the piercer to clamp it shut and fiddle around with a new pierced part instead of just screwing a ball on. I recommend any new piercings to be with a bar/stud as it is quicker and less irritating. Put it this way, I'm going for a 2nd lip piercing and not another belly button piercing ;)
