Introduction
Earlobe Repair & Reduction
The trend of large, heavy earrings and gauges has sparked a growing demand for earlobe repair, as these accessories often stretch and distort the natural shape of the earlobes. Over time, many individuals find their earlobes elongated, torn, or misshapen, but Dr. Gray offers a solution through expert earlobe repair. By carefully trimming excess tissue and suturing the lobe back together, he restores a smooth, natural contour. Whether closing stretched piercings or performing more advanced reshaping, the goal is always to enhance both appearance and function.
Dr. Gray also frequently incorporates earlobe reduction into facelift procedures, ensuring the earlobes blend seamlessly with a rejuvenated, lifted face for a more balanced result.

Individuals with:
- Earlobe elongation or splits from wearing heavy earrings.
- Multiple piercings close together, leading to earlobe stretching or distortion.
- Large holes or gaps resulting from gauges.
- Ripped or damaged earlobes due to earrings being pulled or snagged.
- Earlobe injuries from burns, cuts, and other traumatic events.
Although it’s challenging to prevent scarring entirely, a well-trained surgeon such as Dr. Gray will strive to reduce it as much as possible. Incisions are usually placed within the natural folds and lines of the earlobe, which helps scars to gradually diminish and become more inconspicuous over time.
Certainly, you can get your earlobes repierced after they’ve completely healed.

After earlobe repair, swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the affected area are common. It is essential to maintain cleanliness, use antibiotic ointment, and refrain from wearing earrings for several weeks. Typically, normal activities can be resumed within a week.
Earlobe reduction is generally deemed a cosmetic procedure, and insurance usually does not cover it. However, in certain rare instances, earlobe trauma involving a cut or laceration may be considered medically necessary.
