My jeweller also mentioned that he has customers who have done the surgical thing to close or reduce holes on their ears.

I am not loving the look of the stretched holes on my ears!!! I heard I can have it surgically done to reduce it but I fear it would leave a scar. I like wearing wire/hook dangle earrings and they make the holes even more visible!!! I dont wear heavy earrings at all but when I was younger, I used to forget and got lazy to take off my earrings and just wore them to sleep so thats probly what caused it to stretch out over the years. Not to mention wearing those gigantic pearls I had for over a year but I didnt even wear them everyday. I can only wear studs and loops now to hide it. Anyone got the same problem?
P.S. The holes are at the side of my ears, almost too close to the skin on my face, and prefer them to be in the middle. My studs dont pop out because they are way too positioned on the side. I plan to have them pierced in the middle but what do I do with the other holes? Surgery would probly close them but like I said, it might leave a nasty scar!
Surgery by a top plastic surgeon is the only way!!! It will solve the problem and is not a difficult problem to fix. My friend just recently had it done. If you google it you will see its a very common problem with women due to wearing heavy earrings at some point.
I can imagine its something you would keep putting off! My friend had it with another surgery (nose).
If you were only doing the holes, it would be a day proceedure. You would have stiches too, have to wait for everything to heal, then eventually get repierced.
And might I add, that if your ear peircing is the worst problem you have....you are doing great!!!!![]()
Thanks Littlesharon!!! Did the surgery leave scars on your friend's ear? Im really curiousI can imagine its something you would keep putting off! My friend had it with another surgery (nose).

Oooooh!!! Thanks for that info allie!!! I'll try to look this up and search for a surgeon!!!I know someone who had the surgery and her ears don't have any scars at all. It was a pretty simple procedure too.
The studs are .70 each and it helps to have small earlobes. They make the stones look huge on my ears![]()
LOLOLOL! If only the hole on my ear was at the middle, the stud would probly look like a 1ct.I will always envy you for that you tiny thing!!!! Mine are .75cts that are cut to spread .80cts appearance and they look the same as yours do on you!!!!!!(gggrrrr!!!!XX)
Good news about the other posters comment about the surgery though!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOLOLOL! If only the hole on my ear was at the middle, the stud would probly look like a 1ct.!!! Gotta get my ears done soooon! LOL
I'll ask my cousin who's a cardiologist if he knows some good plastic surgeons around. I heard from a friend that the procedure isnt expensive. Well, I have to confirm that first. Will keep you posted about it and if I do go through the procedure, I'll post some before, during, and after pics LOL EeeekHahaha!!! now your rubbing it in!!! Cheeky!!! But really good news on the procedure,are you more comfortable about going further with it and finding out a bit more?xxxxxxxxx

LOL And i really feel its about time I did something with the stretched holes. I fear they would stretch out more in years to come and I'll end up with sliced earlobes
