just got nipples pierced about a month ago and decided that it is just not for me so i want to know what the process is to remove them and let them heal

As long as you’re not having any concerns that the piercings may be infected, simply cleaning and removing the jewelry and keeping the area clean as you would a cut should suffice.

Weeping of fluid around the piercing holes for the first day or so could be expected - mind you don’t wipe at it as you could introduce bacteria to the wound and CAUSE an infection. Do not poke anything back through the holes to “see if it’s closed up” as you can really irritate the healing piercing - and open it back up.

You can always go see your piercer and have them safely clean and remove the jewelry for you. Any concerns of possible infection should be brought to the attention of your doctor before removing the jewelry.
