my mother ripped one earlobe piercing hole when I was nine, I am 25 now, it has also torn more due to constant wear of earrings, I don't even wear heavy ones. I have tried to go without earrings to let it heal and it remains open. I wanted to get it surgically fixed, as recommended by piercing places and doctors, but if the lobe isn't torn all the way through it will cost about $400 to fix, I don't have that kind of money. is there a home treatment available?

Answer: No home remedy for torn earlobe Unfortunately, there is really no home remedy to repair a torn earlobe or stretched earring hole. It is a pretty quick surgical procedure, and if you found a plastic surgeon charging $400 that may be the best you find (typically costs more). The good news is many plastic surgeons offer financing, so if you wanted to get it done sooner rather than later, you could try applying for financing. Otherwise, you may have to wait until you are able to save up for it. I wish I had an easier answer for you! Once it stretches like in the photo, it does not tend to improve even after earrings are removed, and surgical correction is your only real option.

Answer: Ripped Earlobe Piercing Repair #earloberepairseattle You have an impending tear of your earlobe piercing. With time your stretched piercing will likely tear completely through. The stretched piercing you have may be repaired by a plastic surgeon using a local anesthetic.The procedure itself isn't very painful at all, and after 6 weeks I allow my patients to have their earlobes re-pierced.There is no home remedy to repair the stretched or torn earlobe.
