Same as you would stretch any other piercing except much more slowly. Cartilage is difficult to stretch and may not stretch. It just varies from person to person.

Can you stretch your 5 month industrial piercing to a 14 gauge from a 16?
No. Let's understand the body before we go doing anything. Cartilage is not an elastic tissue like skin, it is a frame work that holds the tissue in place but doesn't stretch, it tears. You can not taper a 16g cartilage piercing to 14g without doing damage to the cartilage and the piercing. Regardless of what some folks will say, cartilage doesn't stretch like regular ear lobes do, so if you want a higher gauge you need to consider repiercing. You may be able to get a 14 into a 16 hole but it will be very sore and very painful in the long run, hardly worth the pain and effort.
