Poorly healing ear lobes
Are a rarity as has been mentioned by my colleagues. If you truly have some tissue disorder that prevents healing, you relaly need to consider clip on earrings.

Regardless, the procedure to repair torn earlobes is relatively simple and done in the office under local anesthesia.
