Earlobe Correction

Overview

What is Earlobe Correction?

Earlobe correction, or earlobe repair surgery, is a procedure to fix stretched, torn, or misshapen earlobes. It’s commonly sought by individuals who have experienced damage from heavy earrings, gauges, or accidental tears.

Earlobe damage can affect your appearance and confidence. Earlobe correction offers:

  • A restored, natural earlobe shape.
  • The ability to wear earrings comfortably again.
  • A boost in self-esteem.

How Earlobe Correction Works

The procedure involves:

  • Removing scar tissue or stretched skin.
  • Reshaping and suturing the earlobe to restore its natural contour.

Earlobe correction is usually performed under local anaesthesia, so it is considered a straightforward and minimally invasive procedure.

What to Expect When Having Earlobe Correction

Before: A consultation with our specialist will address the cause of the earlobe damage and outline the surgical repair process.

During: The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and usually takes 30-60 minutes per ear. Torn or stretched tissue is removed, and the earlobe is reshaped and sutured.

After: Stitches are removed after 7-10 days, and patients can resume wearing earrings after complete healing, which takes around 6-8 weeks.

Risks and Complications of Earlobe Correction

Earlobe correction is safe, with minimal risks such as:

  • Mild swelling or bruising.
  • Rare infection at the incision site.
  • Slight scarring, which fades over time.

Our experienced team is there with you every step of the way for a safe, comfortable experience.

How to Recover from Earlobe Correction

Recovery is simple, with most patients returning to work and daily activities the next day. To support healing:

  • Keep the area clean and dry.
  • Avoid pulling or tugging on the earlobe.
  • Wait at least six weeks before re-piercing your ears.
