I was thinking of getting my lip pierced, but I wanted to know how bad is the scarring when you take it out? I don’t want to have a huge hole/scar a few years from now if I decide to take it out.. thanks.
No piercing should be done without accepting the risk of scarring. In most cases a small gauge lip piercing should leave only a minimal scar resembling an open pore. However, the time it takes to get to this point will vary based on your bodies healing, the time you had the piercing in and if it was stretched any (speaking mainly of stretching from use and not referring to intentional stretching for larger jewelry).

i had my lip pierced for 3 years and had to remove it due to damaged teeth - i still have a dent where it was, infact i know i can still put jewellery in it. there is always that chance but to be honest the damaged teeth/gums was more of a worry than a scar.
