Affordable Plastic Surgeon in NYC for Torn Earlobe?

Thank you for your question.  We have been seeing quite a few of these in the office.  We can usually do this procedure in the office under local anesthesia.  The patient returns to the office a week later for suture removal.  We usually have patients wait 3 months before re-piercing.  We also ask that they pierce them 3 mm from the scar.  The costs will vary geographically.  Best to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon or Otolaryngologist, (ENT).  They will evaluate your individual situation, and together you will make a plan.  The individual office may have payment plans, (i.e. CareCredit, etc.).

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

Repair of a torn ear lobe ranges in price due to the complexity of the case.  Simple tears car be repaired in less than an hour in the office under local anesthesia.  New trends in ear lobe "Gauging", cause the ear lobes to become markedly distorted and stretched.  Large complex cases like these usually require more operative time and more sophisticated reconstructive surgical correction.  Please visit my website to learn more.  Good Luck....

As
a board certified plastic surgeon practicing out of NYC and specializing in
torn earlobe repair, I would be more than happy to meet with you in person and
to discuss your options. Please feel free to visit my page for more information
on the procedure and to watch my video in which I explain the
implications/benefits of correcting a torn earlobe by clicking here.

The ear lobe reconstruction will be anywhere from $500-$2500 or more depending how you go to and how the earlobe looks. It shouldn't really be more than a $1000, though.
