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.

Smurf, I think they form on the back because the jewelry is usually inserted from front-to-back, so the fistula moves in that direction… Probably a few other reasons I don’t know of (yet).

Okay so… how exactly does one “fix” a blow-out?

a true keloid is an entirely different problem then a mere blow out..

Isabel: Good point! I always forget little things like that because I got pierced w/ cbrs and it has never really mattered what direction I inserted my jewelry from.

Rhiannon: Most people I’ve met have just tied a peice of string around the blow out to cut off the blood flow and waited for it to fall off/ go down.
I’ve always wanted to know what it feels like to have a keloid, but I hope this persons don’t come back.

If it falls off, it’s not a keloid. Also, no doubt the blowout didn’t originally look like that, the keloid grows later.

I’m a touch confused. When I read that the blowout had been removed I sat there staring at the photo for a good minute trying to work out how it was different – I was just mesmerized by the GIANT ear anus that is remaining. I’m curious, will there be an attempt to remove that in future (seeing as how well this removal went)?

Part of me finds that first pic so bizarre looking I’m almost sad he removed any of it. 🙂

Keloids don’t “disappear” or “fall off” from fucking tea tree oil usage. Keloids is an overgrowth of scar tissue that is only fixed by removing it (and like stated, sometimes grows back).
But back to the ear.
If this isn’t a poster child for “Reasons to stretch the RIGHT way”, I don’t know what is.

mephistopheles, if tea tree oil helps it’s hypertrophic, not a keloid. Keloids, like Shat said is an overgrowth of scar tissue, ranging from just slightly overgrown (which is what most people think their hypertrophic scars are), to extremely large like these pictures. Hypertrophic scars are slight lumps around a piercing that don’t grow beyond what appears early on. They are far more common, and can often go away from: Time, changing jewelry (too heavy or poor shape causes excess stress), or tea tree oil. Actual keloids don’t go away from any of these and have to be removed, or occasionally treated with steroid injections. Does anyone read up on the risks involved in our choice of lifestyle and expression??? Thank you BMEZine Encyclopedia!!
