Is it possible to surgically remove belly button piercing holes? (Photo)

October 25, 2015
Asked By:Rsgegp123 in North Sydney, AU

I have 2 holes on my belly from belly button piercings. One from the first time and because the skin got too thin I got it pierced again. Is it possible to get rid of the holes? I would prefer 1 small scar than 2 holes
