What is the cost to repair a torn earlobe?

Earlobe repair costs have variability because the complexity of the procedure needed to repair the problem can vary quite a bit.  The procedure is easily done in the office, but don't let that fool you into thinking that anyone can do a good job.  There are many fine details in technique that separate a great result from an average one.The most simple case is a stretched piercing or a simple tear.  You will likely find a range of around $400-$900 per ear.For more complex issues with stretched tissue (gauge defects, etc) or tissue loss from a tear or other trauma the complexity goes up and so does the cost involved.  In that scenario you should expect to double the figures mentioned above.

Ear Lobe surgery cost varies significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery or Facial Plastic Surgeon you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:1. Location - Most procedures will be performed in a doctor’s office where costs can be contained. If not will it be performed in a hospital or an independent out- patient facility? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.2. Type of Anesthesia – local anesthesia is typical and less costly. If IV sedation or General Anesthesia is used: Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used? 3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery 4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. #earlobesurgery#earloberepair#earloberepaircost

Earlobe repair is a simple in office procedure that is done under local anesthesia. The cost for this procedure may vary depending on the surgeon. I recommend you find a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon you are comfortable with to have the repair. Best of Luck!

I would recommend visiting with a board certified plastic surgeon.  We typically charge between $500 - 750 depending on whether one or both earlobes are involved and assuming it a straight forward tear in the earlobe.

Earlobe repair is a very common procedure. Frequently, we have patients who will have the procedure done the same day as the consultation. Typically, the cost is between $450-850 per earlobe, depending on the severity and the length of the procedure.You may be able to find a doctor who will do this under insurance but i am not aware of any.The length of time the ears have been gauged should have no effect on the procedure. As long as the tissue is no longer irritated or inflamed, there is no reason not to give it a try. Gauged ears are sometimes more difficult than some other earlobe repairs since the tissue is so over stretched, but we are still able to create a natural looking earlobe. You can get your ear re pierced about 6 weeks after and should be included in the pricing. Shop around in your area and see if you can find a plastic surgeon in your budget

Thank you for your question.  Prices will vary depending on the severity of the tear, for example was it from an earring pull through, or a torn ear that was previously gaged.  I would anticipate costs to range from 350-1000 per ear, so it is important to have an in-person assessment performed to better determine the degree of reconstruction needed, and its cost. Hope this helps.

Earlobe surgery for torn earlobes is generally a straightforward procedure performed under local anesthesia. It takes about 20 to 25 minutes per earlobe.  We can perform earlobe repiercing at the time of repair for $25 for each piercing.

I have seen prices between $500 and $1000 depending on how much the surgeon can get for this minor procedure.Please use this information when consulting in person with an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
