Blowout

Occurs when stretching of the ears with gauges. It is the extra flap of skin that is created when either going up sizes too fast or when you skip sizes. Blowouts can heal, but it requires the plug to be taken out. Most people think they've gotten a blowout, but in reality they've ripped their ears. Ripping of the ears may have skin discoloration around where the ear was gauged. A blowout mainly happens when the skin does not easily stretch and is forced out through which ever way you're stretching your ears. This excess skin may eventually deteriorate. The results of a blowout (depending on the size) may look unpleasant when the plug is not in.

Person 1: That man's lobes are huge!
Person 2: He's most likely going to get a blowout soon.
