EAR LOBE REPAIR

What is Ear lobe repair surgery?

Ear lobe repair is a very commonly performed facial cosmetic surgical procedure to repair a torn, droopy, or stretched ear lobe. Ladieswear heavy earrings and ear jewelry. With age, the weight of the earring stretches and tears the ear lobe. Sometimes accidentally too, the earring could be pulled to tear apart the lobe. Ear lobe repair or autoplasty is a surgical procedure that can be performed on an outpatient basis to repair these kinds of torn lobes.

How is Ear lobe repair surgery performed?

The surgical procedure is performed under local anesthesia on an outpatient basis. The skin edges of the enlarged hole or tear is excised to create a fresh raw margin. These edges are then meticulously stitched both on the facial aspect and the inner aspect towards the skin using fine suture materials. The sutures are usually removed in 7 to 10 days.

What to expect after Ear lobe repair surgery?

The stretched or torn ear lobe repairs absolutely normal. But it is advisable not to use earrings for a period of 3 to 6 months as these are weak areas post-surgery. New piercings are usually done away from the suture line to prevent breakdowns.
