Earlobe repair is a cosmetic surgical procedure done to repair a torn, stretched or damaged earlobe. It is usually performed under local anaesthesia and involves surgical techniques to reshape and restore the natural contour of the earlobe. Earlobe repair is often done on individuals who have had their earlobes torn as a result of wearing heavy earrings, accidental injury or trauma, or stretched due to aging. The ear lobe can be re-pierced after the earlobe is completely healed.
