I have stretched earlobes and I really would like to get them sewn. I am really unsure of who to go to (Photo)

Stretched earlobes are difficult due to the thin nature of the tissue and loss of elasticity. This will often require a tissue rearrangement or other minor tweaks to the procedure to achieve optimal results. I would make sure to choose a board certified plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon to ensure they are adequately trained to give you the results that you will want.

Hello. You can have your earlobes repaired. Most plastic surgeons do this procedure in the office. The cost is approximately $500 to $100 per ear. This procedure can fix a split lobe or stretched and enlarged piercing holes. After you are fully healed from the procedure you can have your earlobes re-pierced.
Best of luck!

Earlobe surgery is composed of several techniques that can either repair torn earlobes (split earlobes) or correct overly redundant earlobe tissue from piercings or genetics or stretching. Our HIDEF earlobe repair includes a recontouring of the earlobe contour using multilayered sutures to reapproximate the curvature of the earlobe; while simultaneously restoring contour to the ear. In patients with pixie ears after facelift surgery, an alternate technique is used to reduce the dependance of the earlobe on the facelift flap. Facelift surgery can reshape the earlobe and this requires restoration. Sutures are usually taken out within 10 days and the wound is repierced in 4-6 weeks thereafter. Keloid scars must be addressed in patients with known history for scarring.
