When can I get my ears repierced? (Photo)

Sometimes, you may need the canal from the piercing closed. Once this is done, we would wait 6 to 8 weeks to repierce the ears. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Hi... It looks like the hearing holes have not yet healed, and I would not expect them to do so if they have been there for quite some time. I would recommend first having a repair of the earring holes and then re-pierce the ears after about six weeks. You can expect to have excellent results from this staged approach. I wish you the best!

Earlobe repair is a very common procedure. Frequently, we have patients who will have the procedure done the same day as the consultation. Typically, the cost is between $450-850 per earlobe, depending on the severity and the length of the procedure. The length of time the ears have been gauged should have no effect on the procedure. As long as the tissue is no longer irritated or inflamed, there is no reason not to give it a try. Gauged ears are sometimes more difficult than some other earlobe repairs since the tissue is so over stretched, but we are still able to create a natural looking earlobe. You can get your ear re pierced about 6 weeks after and should be included in the pricing.
