Earlobe Repair

EARLOBE REPAIR

WHAT it is:

An Earlobe Repair is a surgical procedure that improves the shape, position or proportion of the ear(s) to bring balance to the face.

HOW it’s done:

In an Earlobe Repair, Dr. Politis will start by excising the the elongated hole or stretched out lobe. She then sows the skin to form a newly rejuvenated earlobe.

Piercing can be performed if needed in 6-8 weeks.

WHAT to expect:

Discomfort immediately following an earlobe repair is normal and can be controlled with pain medication.

There may be an itchy feeling under bandages. It is essential that bandages remain intact and are not removed for any reason. Failure to do so may result in loss of some of the correction and may require a secondary surgery.

AWAKE or ASLEEP

Take a nap with general anesthesia
