I've stretched me ears to 7/8s, I have what we call in the ear stretching world a "blow out", not sure what to call it medically. I was wondering how much it would cost to have it cut off. From my understanding, its where you stretch to big to fast and push the skin inside your ear out the back. thanks

Answer: Blowout repair The repair of gauge holes is pretty simple and I usually charge $300 to $400 per side. Any experienced plastic surgeon can accomplish this, but the price may vary quite a bit. Call around to find out what different surgeons charge. It should not cost an arm and a leg.

Answer: Ear lobe "blowout" repair
Dear Stretchedears.
Thank you for the photo. In order to cut out the "blowout," in your particular case, it would cost $500-$800 in our practice. To restore the earlobe to its previous size and appearance would cost approximately $900-$1000. The procedure can be performed under local anesthesia in a procedure room in our office. Most patients do well with a local anesthetic alone, but an oral sedative can be provided for those patients who are particularly anxious. Excising the "blowout" can make it more difficult to stretch in the future because of the scar tissue that will occur as a result of the repair. Hope this helps!
