I have had my stretched ears for awhile now and i sized up to 1inch (25mm) and didn't like it so i went back down to 00g (10mm) and now thier extremely thick and there is so much loose skin and i want to be at the 00g but i can't wear any jewelry because of my ears and the jewelry keeps falling out i want to get them sewn up and then be able to redo them how much would it be because my ears are (10mm) i heard that it all depends on the size of your ear as well so im pretty confused on that

Answer: Gauged ear lobe repari Thanks for sharing. They gauged ears most likely need to be closed surgically and then can be repierced 6 weeks later. However, scar tissue forms internally along the line of the closure and will make stretching difficult as scar tissue responds differently than normal tissue. You can try to keep the gauges out for a month and see how they "shrink" on their own as well. Consult in person with an experienced surgeon to discuss your options.

Answer: I have stretched ears 00g (10mm) Can I get sewn up to stretch them again because of too thick ear lobes? My jewelry falls out Hello Modifiedmind,Your ears can be repaired and made smaller. This is a little more difficult of a procedure than simply repairing a non-stretched, torn earlobe, but it is still an office based procedure. You could then have your ears repierced several weeks later. However, if you are looking to stretch your earlobe after the repair, I would advise against that. The reason is that scar tissue is never as strong as non scar tissue. During the stretching process you could blow out the entirely earlobe. This could also be repaired but the more trauma you cause to your ear the less natural looking the earlobe will appear after the repair. I'd recommend you consult with a facial plastic surgeon to go over your options and determine what is the best course of action for you.I hope this helps and good luck.
