A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Lobe Keloid Treatment

Speaking of both keloids and John Joyce, he had a customer come in with extremely deformed lobes from keloids erupting out of blowout from ear piercings. He cut off and cauterized one of the keloids for the customer (I assume the remainder will follow), and cauterized it. Six weeks later, the keloid is gone (depending on the person they can grow back no matter what treatment is used) and healing has been exceptional.

    I had small growths on both sides of my cartilage from getting them done with studs, after getting rings and using hydrocortisone acetate cream, they slowly went down.

    What’s all this talk about blow-outs for? Theres a gigantic keloid staring you in the face!

    But, as everyone else is doing it 😉

    I had a blow out in my right lobe, and all I did to ‘fix’ it was downsize by like, 1mm, and put the jewelery in the other way (ie. back to front, instead of front to back) which probably wasn’t healthy or whatever, but my lobes are absolutely fine now thank you very much 🙂

    But back to the keloid- I’m curious as to how long the ‘wearer’ waited before seeing someone about it?
