Repairing earlobes after keloid removal depends on the actual situation

It would depend on how big of a defect it is in the earlobe. If you whole earlobe is affected it could take a big operation. the pricing would be between $500-$5000 depending on the situation and basically the time factor.

Ear Keloids

I think what your asking is that you currently have keloids on your earlobes and you're curious about the cost of removing them...or are you saying that you already had some kind of surgery?

There are earrings sometimes referred to as 'Brent' earrings that are clip-on type earrings designed to put an even pressure... more

Depends upon the degree of the keloids involvement in the ear lobule. Plus if the need of radiation post reconstruction. A range would be $2500 to $6000.

Earlobe Creation

This is a multiple step operation, requiring elevation of a flap of skin from behind the ear and then a month later, transecting the base and flipping the skin over to create the lobule. In a person that keloids, there would be a high risk of a keloids reforming in the new lobe. For this multiple stage procedure, we would charge $1900 for one ear and $2900 for both. The bottom line, yes it can be done, but it might not be worth it.
