just want a smaller earlobe, cutting it half its size.I feel like i can do the procedure myself with scissors. Just cutting it in a half and patching it up lol. Im just worried about the healing process. I Dont have gages, or a stretched hole because of earrings. Its just a personal preference of mine that i would like done. I have a normal size earlobe i guess you can say. So yaa.. how much, where can i get it done and will it look normal after cutting a piece off.

Answer: Earlobes are worth repairing and heal very easily. In my experience with simple and complex earlobe repairs, I can tell you that what you want to accomplish can definitely be done, and ears have a surprisingly short healing time. The ears can be sutured with self dissolving sutures, and these will generally dissolve within a week. The most important thing is to make sure the Dermatologist, or Plastic Surgeon you see is doing these repairs often, you can ask to see before and after pictures as well. Depending on the complexity of the case the price range can vary per ear from $500 to over $1,000 depending on who you see. Hope this helps answer your question.

Answer: Earlobe reduction surgery During earlobe reduction, I will mark each earlobe for the desired new shape and size. After injection with local anesthesia, I will simply cut on the "dotted line," reducing the earlobe size and improving its shape. A small amount of fat is removed to facilitate closure. The scar is located on the edge (rather than the more visible aspect) of the earlobe. Procedure cost is generally $1050 for 1 earlobe and $1950 for both earlobes.
