FAQs
Torn, Ripped, or Split Earlobe Reconstruction
How long will it take?
Earlobe reconstruction surgery is an outpatient procedure that can take up to 2 hours. It will be an in-office visit and you will be able to head home directly following the earlobe repair.
How to fix a ripped earlobe?
After using a local anesthetic, Dr. Maughan will expertly trim away old, scarred skin, providing new edges that will attach together. He will carefully reshape the ear and place stitches to hold the more natural shape.
Can I re-pierce my ears?
Yes, your ears may be pierced again once your ears are fully healed. This may take between 3 and 6 months. We recommend lightweight earrings.
How long is my recovery?
Often our patients head back to normal activities the next or even the same day. You will feel recovered within a week and full healing will be between 3 and 6 months.
Do sagging earlobes need surgery?
For sagging earlobes caused more by natural aging than damage, surgery will not be necessary. We will use injectable dermal fillers to restore your earlobes.
Will there be scarring?
Dr. Maughan is an expert at reconstructive surgical dermatology and he will create a natural look for your ear. For any other scars you’d like to touch up, we offer laser skin resurfacing.
Do you provide other services besides ear repair?
Our cosmetic dermatology services also include eyelid surgery, Botox, facials, chemical peels, and more.
