Conch is said to be the larger part of the ear cartilage. A piercing done in this area heals quickly if jewelry like labrets and barbells are used.
It takes 8-16 weeks for this piercing to be healed.

All, these factors are important. Simple things like being careful when putting on your clothes, washing your hands before touching the piercing, being careful while combing one’s hair will play a great role in determining the healing period.
