By "take them out" do you just mean to change the jewelry? If so, probably about 2-3 months, or just until they stop getting crusty and sore.
I got pierced at 10G... I know that's quite a bit smaller... but I changed them after 4 weeks because I needed better jewelry for healing. I think they took about three months to heal, but I'm a pretty slow healer. Really, a 4G piercing isn't going to take much longer to heal than a smaller one.
I'm Lindsay.
I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!
