What Is Earlobe Repair?
Earlobe repair is a minor surgical procedure designed to restore the natural appearance of the earlobe.
Common reasons for treatment include:
Torn Earlobe
A split or torn earlobe caused by heavy earrings or accidental pulling.
Stretched Earring Hole
Piercing holes that have gradually enlarged over time.
Gauge Repair
Correction of stretched earlobes caused by gauges or plugs.
Earlobe Reduction
Reduction of large or elongated earlobes to improve facial balance.
Pixie Ear Correction
Correction of attached or stretched earlobes following ageing or previous surgery.
Same-Day Earlobe Repair
Many patients are surprised to learn that earlobe repair can often be performed immediately after consultation.
Benefits include:
β No hospital admission
β No general anaesthetic
β Procedure performed under local anaesthetic
β Return home immediately afterwards
β Minimal disruption to daily activities
β Convenient clinic-based treatment
The Procedure
The procedure is usually performed under local anaesthetic.
Treatment may involve:
β’ Removal of stretched or damaged tissue
β’ Reshaping of the earlobe
β’ Fine suturing techniques
β’ Restoration of the natural contour of the ear
Most repairs take approximately 15β30 minutes per earlobe.
Recovery
Following surgery, patients may experience:
β’ Mild swelling
β’ Mild bruising
β’ Mild tenderness
Sutures are generally removed after 7β14 days.
Most patients return to normal activities shortly after treatment.
Earrings should generally be avoided for approximately 6β8 weeks while healing occurs.
Will There Be A Scar?
All surgical procedures create a scar.
However, incisions are carefully placed to minimise visible scarring and achieve the best possible cosmetic outcome.
Most scars gradually fade with time and become significantly less noticeable.
Can I Re-Pierce My Ears Afterwards?
Yes.
Most patients can have their ears re-pierced after the earlobe has completely healed.
This is usually performed approximately 6β8 weeks after surgery.
