How old must you be to get earlobe reconstruction surgery? (fix stretched ears)

About a year ago I was going through a bit of a rebellious phase and I decided to stretch my ears (stupid I know). Now I'm not too fond of them, neither is my mother, and I would like to have them fixed. They aren't that big at all, but they won't close up on there own :/ . I was wondering if there was an age limit on those type of surgeries? I have parental consent. (Stretched ears are gauges/ those big holes some people have in there ears if you didn't understand :D)
