Well it depends on the type of lip piercing you have, only certain ones can be stretched. So with that in mind I would suggest you go speak to your piercer. There are too many details that need to be covered and this is not the venue for that.

What is the smallest gauge size for your lip?

Lip rings range in size from 20 gauge (the smallest) to 14 gauge (the largest). Sixteen-gauge is considered a "normal" size lip ring. The piercer will usually start with a lip ring that is slightly larger to accommodate the swelling that will naturally occur as a result of the piercing process. Once healing has occurred, the wearer can change the size of the lip ring to either a smaller or larger one.

If you have an 18 gauge for a lip piercing when you switch it out can you use a 16 gauge instead?

Yes, but you would be streching the hole, like people stretch their ears.
