Earlobe Repair Surgeon in Seattle, WA
The plastic surgeons at Sound Plastic Surgery are recognized as experts in stretched ("gauged") and torn earlobe repair. Our plastic surgeons have restored the shape and contour of stretched, gauged and torn earlobes for many Seattle and Portland area patients.
Our earlobe repair surgery can be completed in our clinic procedure room under local anesthesia in under an hour. We use a local anesthetic ear block technique to render the ear completely numb for a painless repair. Sutures are removed from the earlobe 5-6 days after surgery. Individual results will vary, however earlobes can usually be re-pierced with a standard post 4-6 weeks after repair. The plastic surgeons at Sound Plastic Surgery have experience repairing multiple types of earlobe and piercing related issues.
