PATIENT PROFILE
People with a distended or torn lobe, generally due to the use of earrings.
Young people, especially boys, with very large or very detached lobes.
Elderly people whose earlobes hang down too much and are aesthetically discomforting.
PROCEDURE
Often, wearing earrings causes tearing of the earlobe and enlargement of the hole in one or both ears. If this tear is very large, a complete tear may occur and the earlobe may be split in two.
The repair is simple and painless. Aged or broken skin is removed and replaced with strong, tough, young skin from the same lobes. In this way, we not only stitch the lobe but also strengthen and rejuvenate it so that it does not happen again.
To perform this procedure, 2 or 3 very fine stitches are usually placed.
