How Much Would Ear Piercing Closing Cost?

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

The cost for earlobe repair is a common question. Earlobes requiring repair can be from a variety of reasons. Some may include a torn earlobe from a pulled earring, gauged earlobes that are now unwanted, facelift surgery causing pulled earlobes, or just simply elongated from older age. Because of the variety of different causes, earlobe repair may vary in complexity. A price range would be $500-$900 per earlobe. This will vary also depending on the region of the country you are in and the surgeon's expertise. I use some special techniques to minimize scarring and notching that can be seen if not reconstructed in experienced hands. This repair can be performed comfortably under local anesthesia to avoid any additional fees such as anesthesia fees. Earlobes can be re-pierced 6 weeks later if desired. Consult with an experienced board certified facial plastic / plastic surgeon in you area.

For roughly $500 per earlobe the hole can be closed under local anesthesia and painlessly with no down time. Sincerely,

Closing a torn earlobe or an ear piercing is performed much in the same manner.  As a result, these 2 procedures generally have similar costs. The price of closure depends on your geographic location, the number of piercings, and the experience and education of the plastic surgeon.  Typically, one ear piercing closure runs between $600 - $800; if you have the opposite performed at the same time, usually the second side is discounted.

Depending on what exactly needs to be done, my estimate that this would run form $250-500 per ear lobe

Hi aleannmal in Everett, WA, 

The cost of plastic surgery on the ear varies, largely based on the complexity of the potential procedure. Torn, split, or enlarge ear lobes are commonly seen in women who wears large earring, have metal allergy, or have an injury.  Ear lobe repair is typically performed in the office via local anesthesia.

The cost of plastic surgery varies greatly, but it's usually similar for plastic surgeons in your area. Portions of plastic surgery may also be covered by your insurance provider. The cost of cosmetic surgery involves several charges for the entire service. The total fees may also include cost of surgical supplies, laboratory tests, anesthesia, and hospital operating room charges, in addition to the surgeon's fee for performing the cosmetic surgery.

Sometime people choose to have their earring holes surgically closed.  The procedure would be very similar to a earlobe repair.  While price would vary between city to city and surgeon to surgeon, you should expect to pay somewhere between $1000 and $2000 for the procedure.  The procedure is performed in the office and you return in one week to have the stitches taken out.  If you have having a repair and want your ears pierced, then we do not charge for the piercing or follow up visit.  

The average price we charge in our San Diego office for this type of procedure under local anesthesia is $400 for one ear and $600 for both ears done at the same time.

Our typical fee to close these holes, regardless of whether they are torn is $1,800. The procedure is done in our operating room under local anesthesia and sutures are removed a week later. You can return to work immediately and a small paper tape bandage covers the area so that you will not see the sutures. In addition, you can shower over the area the next day.
