There are some steps you need to take:

Obtain new port

Open laptop

Dissasemble until the old port is naked and you can work on it

Remove it carefully

Solder the new one into place

If you don’t feel like this is worth the trouble, or is a risk, a technician should be able to repair it for a small fee.

Provided you bring the new one to them, they may even fix it on the spot.
