I haven’t personally downsized, but I was told by a nurse the best way to do so is using Preparation H. Massage onto lobes twice a day, everyday, and they’ll shrink back to "normal ".

Honestly what I did when I went down is I tried going up a size and just took my stretchers out completely. Since my skin was stretched and irritated and was doing the bodies natural thing they went down on the own and rather quickly.

Unfortunately at 40mm I caught a nasty infection. I had to either reduce size for healing or have a “blow out”. I simply took my tunnels out. Allowed 4 weeks for healing and now am back up to almost an inch

Easy. I left them out and massaged mine with unscented lotion and down they went as time goes by. The bigger the lobes are stretched, the longer it takes though.

I was up to 3/4 of an inch and decided that was just too big for me. I just took my plugs out for about 6 months and they went down to 5/8. I still wanted them smaller, so i took them out for another 2 months and they shrunk down to 1/2. Which is where i am now. The whole time i massaged jojoba oil on them.
