What is earlobe repair or ear repair?

Ear repair, also referred to as "earlobe repair," is intended to treat conditions like torn, stretched, or elongated earlobes, often caused by heavy earrings or trauma.

What happens during an earlobe repair procedure?

Your earlobes will be covered with topical numbing cream before an injection of local anaesthetic. Your ear will be cleaned when it has become numb, and sterile drapes will be wrapped around it. Depending on the size and form of the earlobe, the method for repairing it may differ slightly, but in general, a section of tissue will be removed, the open ends are then stitched back together with absorbable stitches, and a bandage will be applied.

What are the side effects of Earlobe Repair treatment?

One of the simplest cosmetic procedures is lobuloplasty, or ear lobule repair surgery, which carries a very low risk of complications. The following are normal short-term side effects of earlobe repair surgery:

  • Itching and Swelling 
  • Minimal discomfort 
  • Bleeding from the incisions
  • Infection
  • Scarring
The doctor can readily handle these side effects. But occasionally, the scar might not heal normally, resulting in the formation of a keloid or hypertrophic scar that requires additional care. In some cases, the earlobe can tear up again if the patient neglects the doctor's instructions and resumes wearing heavy ear jewellery.

When can I resume wearing earrings after an ear repair?

Patients are typically advised to wait a few weeks before wearing earrings again to allow the earlobe to heal properly. Your dermatologist will provide specific guidelines based on your individual case.

Will the ear repair leave any visible scars?

 While some scarring is inevitable, dermatologists strive to minimize it and often use techniques to ensure that scars are discreet and well-concealed.

Is it possible to fix both ears in the same session?

Indeed, it is frequently possible to fix both ears in the same session. This makes the outcome more symmetrical and balanced.

Is it possible for a damaged earlobe to heal without surgery?

The split in your ear may naturally close if you stop wearing earrings, especially hefty ones, but the area may stay weak and may split again if you start wearing them again.

When can I get my ear re-pierced after having my earlobe repaired?

After two weeks, the stitches made during the treatment are removed. Around the sixth week, most people are able to have their ears pierced again. Our esthetician can do the procedure at Sakhiya Skin Clinic or a location of your preference.

Are the results of the treatment permanent?

The results of earlobe repair procedures can last a lifetime, and they are quite effective. To maintain the results, it's essential to be cautious and avoid activities that could harm the earlobes, like accidents or wearing heavy earrings.

Are there other options instead of this treatment?

Other than surgery, there aren't really any other options for healing earlobes. If your earlobes are damaged in a way that can't be fixed with creams or ointments (like cuts or wounds), undergoing surgery might be the only choice.
