Whether the earlobes have been stretched or torn due to heavy jewelry or they suffer from congenital irregularities, earlobe repair surgery can restore a more aesthetically pleasing appearance, refining the lobe contours..

When the earlobes sag or appear damaged in some way, it can distract the gaze from the eyes and the smile, compromising the appearance and interfering with self-confidence. Earlobe repair allows patients to enjoy a wider range of hairstyles and experience ears that appear balanced, symmetrical, and free from imperfections.

Before & After

How is the Procedure Performed?

Repairing tears and lacerations

During repair surgery, skin lining the piercing is removed to create new edges that can then be sutured together for a more seamless appearance. The treatment is performed under local anesthesia and typically takes about 30 minutes to complete.

Correcting gauged earlobes

Gauged or stretched-out earlobes can be reconstructed to revive their appearance. The skin and soft tissue of the ears are refined, and sutures are used to restore natural-looking contours. Treatment takes 30-60 minutes and is done under local anesthesia.

Reducing enlarged earlobes

Earlobe reduction is an excellent option for patients with naturally enlarged lobes or those struggling with age-related earlobe elongation. Excess soft tissue and skin are excised from the area near the bottom of the ear. Treatment can be performed in about 30 minutes to an hour under local anesthesia.

Earlobe rejuvenation

With the aging process, the soft tissue of the lobes can begin to deteriorate and thin out. Earlobe rejuvenation can restore lost volume in the earlobes, strengthening their overall structure. Dermal fillers are used, and treatment takes just minutes to perform.

What Will My Recovery Entail?

Recovery after earlobe repair tends to be minimal since only local anesthesia is utilized. Minor swelling and bruising may occur for 1-3 days. Patients can usually resume normal activities after their procedures, but they should take care to avoid vigorous physical exertion for up to 2 weeks.

Patients should avoid putting any pressure on the ears, sleeping on their backs for up to 4 weeks post-op. Sutures that need to be removed are addressed within 7 days, during which time patients should avoid getting the ears wet. Over-the-counter pain medications can help alleviate any lingering discomfort.
