Common Ear Lobe Problems

Heavy earrings accidental pulls gauges and long term piercing can lead to elongated holes partial splits or complete tears of the ear lobe Many people also develop stretched lobes or asymmetry that makes it difficult to wear conventional earrings or feel comfortable in social settings

Simple Surgical Repair

Ear lobe repair is usually performed under local anaesthesia as an outpatient procedure The surgeon removes thin scarred edges around the tear or enlarged hole and then delicately closes the tissue with fine sutures to recreate a smooth lobe margin When large gauges have stretched the lobe significantly additional reshaping may be required to restore a rounded contour

Aftercare and Re Piercing

Stitches are generally removed after about one week and patients can return to most activities immediately taking care to avoid pressure or heavy jewellery during healing Re piercing is usually delayed for several months so that the repaired lobe gains strength and is performed in a slightly different location to avoid the original scar line
