Earlobe Repair

Earlobe splits or tears are very common, occurring to hundreds of thousands of individuals. Heavy earrings can work down through the earlobe, elongating the hole. Earrings can be caught in clothing, or in children’s or babies’ hands and cause the earlobe to be torn. If your earlobes are stretched from years of wearing heavy earrings, or torn or split from trauma, we can help. The disfigured appearance of damaged earlobes can be uncomfortable and embarrassing. Earlobe repair is a fast, safe, effective solution that will allow you to wear earrings again.

Having your earlobes repaired is a simple office procedure that requires no downtime. Local anesthesia ensures a comfortable procedure, and healing time is usually about 7 to 10 days.
