PATIENT’S PROFILE
People with loosely distended or usually loosened by the use of slopes.
Young, especially boys, with very large lobes or very detached.
Elderly people who are heavily lobed and aesthetically upset.
PROCEDURE
Often, the use of earrings causes the ear lobe to tear and the hole to become larger in one ear or in both. If this tear is very large, a complete tear can occur and the earlobe split into two.
The repair is simple and not painful. It removes the aged skin or broken skin, and it’s replaced with strong and young skin from the same lobes. In this way, we not only sew the lobe but reinforce and rejuvenate it so that it does not happen again.
To perform this procedure, 2 or 3 very fine stitches are usually placed.
