How can I shrink my stretched ears?

Question

I know this may seem like a dumb question, but I'm just curious and haven't got a clue.

I've had my ears stretched to about a 6-8 gauge for almost three years, and I've heard that having them stretched to that size is easy to shrink.

But because I've had them in for so long, is that a factor?

Answer 1

No, just take them out and leave them out.

I have had zero's for a year and if I take them out for a couple of days they shrink all the way to a 6.

Answer 2

You should have thought about this before you decided to get those huge things in your ears. You might need a plastic surgeon.  Good luck.

Answer 3

you should keep them like that for the rest of your life reminding yourself how dumb you can be.

Answer 4

im not sure that ive ever heard of shrinking your ears but you could google it or just let the rest of yourself catch up

Answer 5

It might just take longer for them to shrink, because you've had them so long. I would just downsize or just leave jewelry out of them altogether. Make sure to clean them though. I'm sure they will shrink some in time. It's not a dumb question. Good luck!

Answer 6

You just have to wait.. I have mine stretched..but they're smaller then yours..but when I didn't have earings in them for about 2 months they were shrunk back to tiny size..

Answer 7

Another reason not to do the ear-stretching thing.  No, they'll probably never be the same again.  You'll have to deal with it.

Answer 8

Go to the doctors and get a stitch to help them heal.

Answer 9

Answer 10

You will probably have to have them stiched!
