Earlobe Revision/Repair is an in-office surgical procedure used to repair stretched, torn, or split earlobes commonly caused by an accidental earring pull or wearing heavy earrings for a prolonged period of time.
The earlobe is numbed using a local anesthetic, any existing scar-tissue is removed, and the surgical site is then closed using small stitches. The sutures are removed 7-10 days after the surgery and earlobe can be re-pierced in approximately 6 weeks.
If you have a stretched or torn ear piercing, ask your practitioner if you would be a good candidate for an earlobe Revision/Repair.
