Torn Earlobe Repair
Description
-
A torn or split earlobe can result from heavy earrings, accidental pulling, stretching, or long-term wear of large studs or gauges. At INTEGRITY Skin & DermCare, we offer quick, precise, in-office torn earlobe repair to restore the natural shape and appearance of your earlobes.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, typically takes less than 30 minutes, and requires minimal downtime. With 14+ years of surgical dermatology experience, Dr. Theresa Talens, DNP, FNP-C, ensures smooth, symmetrical, and natural-looking results.
When should I come in?Â
Consider scheduling an appointment if you have:
-
A fully torn or split earlobe
-
A stretched or elongated piercing hole
-
An earring that keeps “slipping through” the hole
-
Pain, irritation, or difficulty wearing earrings
-
Cosmetic concerns about asymmetry or scarring
-
A previously repaired earlobe that didn’t heal as desired
If your earlobe is currently bleeding, actively infected, or acutely injured, you should come in sooner for a prompt evaluation.
