Options for removing nose piercing hole? (Photo)

Brave521580
I’ve realized my nose piercing hole has gotten larger over the years. I’m not ready to totally remove it yet, but if it gets any bigger it would probably be the end of it. Is there any way to close up the hole and remove it? The piercing is 15 years old and won’t close. I don’t know if it would shrink. Would it need a skin graft or would it be able to be removed and stitched?
