Earlobe Repair/Reduction
What is Earlobe Repair & Reduction?
Earlobe repair and reduction correct stretched, torn, or oversized earlobes. Heavy jewellery, gauges, trauma or genetics cause damage or elongation.
This procedure reshapes the earlobe for a more natural look.
What happens during the Earlobe Repair & Reduction procedure?
You’ll stay awake and comfortable during this procedure. Local anesthetic is applied before the area is marked. The surgeon trims excess skin and repairs any tears.
For reduction, they remove a small wedge of tissue to reduce the size. They then reshape and close the earlobe using sutures.
Earlobe Repair & Reduction Recovery and Results
Most patients resume normal activites the next day. Some redness, swelling or tenderness may appear but usually fades within a few days.
Complications
Though 95% of cases are complication free, there is a small risk of:
- Minor infection or bleeding
- Scarring
- Deformity
- Delayed healing
These risks will be discussed with you during the consultation.
Aftercare
Sutures are typically removed after 10–14 days.
By following your surgeon’s provided aftercare guidance closely, you can expect a faster recovery and long lasting, natural looking results.
