Here are 3 common reasons patients choose earlobe repair:
1️⃣ A stretched-out hole
Years of heavy earrings can slowly pull the piercing downward, creating a long or thin opening.
2️⃣ A split from an accident
An earring caught on clothing, a quick tug, or a sudden pull can tear the lobe completely.
3️⃣ Gauges you’re ready to move on from
Stretched lobes from gauges don’t always shrink back on their own. Repair can restore a more natural shape if your style has changed.
Earlobe repair is a quick, in-office procedure done with local anesthesia. The damaged tissue is removed, the lobe is reshaped, and sutured to restore a smooth contour.
