About Earlobe Repair Surgery

Also known as lobuloplasty, earlobe repair surgery is the procedure to repair a split earlobe. The auricular lobules are pierced in different societies and religions for cosmetic and religious reasons. Prolonged use of heavy piercings or injuries can lead to permanent deformity. The earlobe can even tear up in such cases.

So, whether your earlobe is cleft, injured, or has stretched excessively due to some reason, you can consider auricular lobuloplasty or earlobe repair surgery to correct the deformities. Give us a call, discuss your options with Pristyn Care’s plastic surgeons, and make an informed decision.

Treatment

Diagnosis

A facial plastic surgeon, an ENT surgeon, and a dermatologic surgeon can perform an earlobe repair surgery.

As the earlobe does not have any cartilage support, extensive diagnostic tests are not required before the surgery. A brief medical history of the patient is taken to analyze the overall health.

The doctor will explain the procedure and list the risks. Then, the patient is asked to sign a consent form.

Procedure

The correct technique for earlobe repair is chosen based on the current state and the results you expect. The procedure takes place in the following steps-

  • Firstly, the patient is laid down on the procedure chair, and the ear is cleaned with antiseptic.
  • Local anesthesia is administered either directly into the area or around it.
  • The torn or damaged area of the earlobe is illustrated, and skin marking is done for the scar line.
  • If the tear is partial and doesn’t reach the bottom of the ear, the elliptical tear is excised, and the skin is sutured.
  • In case the tear is in the lower-third portion of the earlobe, the tear will be extended to the bottom, the skin is excised, and sutures are placed to close the tear.
  • If the lobes are sagging, then earlobe reduction is done to give them proper shape, and then the lobes are stitched back together.

The entire procedure takes approximately 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the severity of the condition. Mostly, dissolvable sutures are used that do not need removal. If everything is fine, the patient is discharged after a few hours.

Frequently Asked Question

Is it possible to repair the earlobe without surgery?

Yes, a special earlobe repair glue that is available on the market can adjoin torn earlobes. However, this technique often leaves a scar that does not blend well with the earlobe and creates a shadow along the ridge.

Who is the ideal candidate for earlobe surgery?

Earlobe repair surgery can be performed on a child above 5 years, a teenager, or an adult, who is in good health and wishes to improve the appearance of the earlobe. The surgery won’t be recommended for someone with a severe earlobe deformity or someone prone to keloid scarring.

How much does earlobe repair surgery cost in Chennai?

The cost of earlobe repair surgery in Chennai ranges from Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 40,000. The exact cost will vary for each patient as each case is different. The severity of the case, the doctor’s fee, additional correction required, and other factors may influence the overall cost.

Is earlobe repair covered under health insurance?

Earlobe repair is covered by health insurance when it is being performed for a traumatic deformity. If the deformity or tear was caused due to heavy ornaments or aging, the insurance company might deny the claim. If so, you will have to bear the treatment’s expense personally.

Is earlobe repair painful?

No, earlobe repair surgery is not painful as it is performed after administering anesthesia. However, you may experience some distress or discomfort after the anesthesia effects wear off.
