Earlobe repair is quickly becoming one of the most requested procedures in the United States. Elongated earlobe holes or a split earlobe can be caused by many things; heavy earrings worn over long periods of time, gauges, earrings getting caught then pulled, children pulling on earrings, multiple piercings too close together or too close to the bottom of the lobe.

Earlobe Repair Surgery FAQs
Q: What are some of the common earlobe procedures?
A: The most common earlobe deformities are split earlobes, enlarged piercing holes, and elongated earlobes. The first two are related to trauma. Big earlobes often result from prolonged use of heavy earrings or even the natural aging process.
Q: What is a split earlobe deformity?
A: A split earlobe is a separation of the skin on the lobe causing a split-like appearance.
Q: What type of anesthesia is used for earlobe surgery?
A: Earlobe repairs can be performed in the office under local anesthesia. However, they are commonly performed with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as a facelift and fat grafting that often require the person to be asleep.
Q: How long does the procedure last?
A: Each earlobe can take about 30 minutes to complete.
Q: Do stitches need to come out?
A: Some may need to come out and others may stay in and dissolve. If the dissolvable ones don’t dissolve within two weeks, they can be removed in the office.
Q: I have torn earlobes, when can I wear earrings again?
A: While not really a question about classic Otoplasty, this problem can usually be repaired. After repair, you should hold off on further ear piercing for least three months. This will allow the ears to heal properly. The new piercing should not be where the repair was. It is also better not to resume wearing large, heavy earrings.
