The repair of a torn ear lobe is a minor procedure that can be done under local anesthesia in your surgeons office. The ear lobe piercing can have the edges of the tear freshened and the intervening scar is removed. The edges are then repaired with stitches on the front and back. The stitches are removed in 1 week and the ear can be repierced in a few months in the area adjacent to the repair.
A torn earlobe can be repaired under local and occasionally it can be covered by medical insurance depending on you plan.Best Regards,Dr Michael Gartner
