00:00A pierced ear can be gently stretched by inserting earrings that are slightly larger,
00:05and after a few weeks, you could switch to another slightly larger pair. This process
00:11gradually stretches the piercing and stimulates the skin to produce new cells,
00:17allowing the earlobe to expand. But if you don't wait long enough between each size,
00:23the skin could tear and become infected, which can cause the gauge to rip through the lobe.
