When i was in my early teens i wanted to stretch my ears but i did it way to fast and basically ruined my ears. Blew them out, i am between size 5/8 and 3/4. They look bad, terrible, and for my new job i need to take them out so they look even worse. I would like to get them completely fixed so that in the far future i could possibly just have an earing or maybe stretch them professionally. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you :)
