Ear lobe surgery to remove earring holes and ear tears. Will any holes close by themselves if they are five years old?

September 9, 2021
Asked By:MWMom in Beverly Hills, California

I have multiple earring holes in one ear with a couple of small tears at the top of my ear (simple tears, no cartilage missing), and three earring holes in the other. I'm planning on having a procedure to remove the holes. Question: what is a ballpark price range for this type of procedure? Will any of the holes close by themselves if they're five years old? Thank you!
