I stretched my ears to 2 inches about 2 years ago. I have had my plugs out for 2 years and they remain at an inch. I do not wear plugs, however I do massage the area with oil. The lobe doesnt seem to get any thicker. Does anyone have any OTHER suggestions? I don't want to get the sewn up, but I would like have big plugs again.

are they exactly an inch? maybe you should stretch / downsize like twice or something going from 1" to 1"1/8 and back to 1"

but yeah they look quite thin even after downsizing to a much lower size

good luck with it, i hope everything turns out ok

What kind of oil do you use? Emu oil is the best for thickening while most of the others just moisturize or reduce scar tissue.

I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!

I've actually got this same problem with my right ear.
I blew it out pretty badly when sizing up to 00's.
I don't know how to fix it, but would love to figure out how haha
