Tattoos and other body mods

I do kind of miss being at a small size. Jewelry is so much more expensive now. But I love my bigguns.
MoM, your ears may still be open, and just small. And I've been told that large beveled needles can cause unnecessary trauma to the piercing. So you might want an "o needle", which will remove tissue, but would be easier to heal and also remove the scar tissue from the old piercing.
Method of Madness:
Left ear. Right ear. Left ear was pierced at 18 and gradually raised to 6 (18 to 14 to 12 to 10 to 8 to 6). The right ear was pierced at 8 soon after the left ear was stretched to 8, and was stretched to 6 when the left ear was. I took them both out after a few weeks at six and they shrunk to their current size rather quickly. I find it kind of interesting that the right piercing is almost invisible, despite being pierced at the higher size. Then again, maybe it's because it was only pierced for a couple months as opposed to a year or so.
nekowafer:
It wouldn't surprise me at all if you can still get an 18g earring in at least the left ear. The right ear is less likely.
And you can more easily see the one that was pierced at a small size because there is more scar tissue. The other ear was only stretched once, and developed very little scar tissue.
Method of Madness:
The left ear is misleading because as far as I can tell it's completely closed in the back (so if you put something through, it wouldn't be able to come through). Would it be unwise to repierce it, though?
