Answer: Closing Pierced Ears Without Any Surgery Only by Medicines? Unfortunately, no. The healing process after a piercing results in skin growing into the piercing. This is what keeps the hole from closing on its own. Often, to close the piercing tract the edges need to be freshened and then repaired with suture. This most commonly occurs with large piercings or gauge piercings. These can be repaired with a straight-forward office procedure if needed. The earlobes heal very nicely. I hope this information is helpful.Stephen Weber MD, FACS

Answer: Non Surgical Treatment for Earlobes In the case of freshly pierced ears, they can spontaneously close with removal of the earring because epithelialized has not yet grown around the piercing site. In the case of long standing piercings, it is highly unlikely they will close without a surgical procedure. At this point there is no medicine or topical therapy to close earring holes. In most cases of surgical repair, the scars are quite minimal.
