I think it's b/c of her wearing earrings in them all the time. She's only worn small to medium sized ones. No dangly ones.What should I do to make them smaller?
Answer: Earlobe repair Thank you for your question. I would recommend considering earlobe repair. It can be performed under local anesthesia and then re pierced.

Answer: How can I Make My Daughter's Earlobe Piercings Smaller? First, I would try having her wear no earrings for a month. It is possible that the piercings will shrink some by doing this alone.If you've already tried this, and they have not gotten small enough, then, I would meet with a plastic surgeon who will be able to repair these with a short procedure using a local anesthetic. Last week I closed an 8 year old girl's torn earlobe piercing in the office using a local anesthetic. Depending on the maturity of your daughter, she may be able to handle this just fine using a local anesthetic.Thanks for sharing!

Answer: Ear lobe repair You can close the hole fairly easily with a small procedure. While it is pretty straight forward to do in the office, I would take her age in consideration and consider doing this with sedation. Alternatively, you can wait until she is older to repair this when you and she feels they can do it under local in an office.

Answer: Ear piercing Thanks for your question. I would agree with the other responders that a simple in-office procedure could be done to close the current piercings, wait 6 weeks, then re-pierce in a slightly different location on the earlobe. However, I have a 7 year-old myself, and I would probably hold off on putting her through that right now. That is, unless it's really bothering her for some reason. It might be better to wait until she's a bit older and just stick w/ light weight earrings. Best regards.

Answer: Pierced Ears Are Enlaged How to Make Smaller -- Punch Excision and Stitching This can be improved with a small local procedure that sutures this closed. You can then re-pierce the skin 6 weeks later to the size of your liking. Best, Dr. Emer.
