Sooo... my grandmother wouldn't let me pierce my belly button so I did it myself, but after about 4 months I took it out because I realized I didn't get enough skin pierced and I tried to let it heal up and then there was still the hole so I put the ring back it (it was tempting me out of my mind) and I took it out again after a day or so and it is healing better than the first time but there's still a hole indent so I'm using scar removal cream, but is that the right thing to do? And also, I want to get it repierced but will they let me with a hole already?

Piercers are very wary about piercing through scar tissue. You may be able to find someone to do it, but it's not really advised.

I don't see where there would be an issue, the piercer would be piercing a different part of your bellybutton. Unless of course you want to keep your current placement. Just be careful piercing yourself, infection is easy to get. Not saying don't do it, just be sanitary!
