Aging or Stretched Earlobes
Earlobes can become stretched with age, loss of elasticity, or the use of heavy earrings over time. Correction of prominent ears is typically an in office procedure with local anesthesia. The excessive length of the earlobes is reshaped by exact excision of the prominent portion.
When can I wear earrings after an earlobe reduction?
Most patients can wear earrings 4 to 6 weeks after the procedure. We don’t recommend the use of heavy earrings.
Will I have a scar to my earlobe?
Scars in the earlobe conceal well.
