My tragus piercing migrated in 2020 and I am pretty upset about it. I'm looking for guidance on where to go, who to see, if there is even a procedure available for this?

Answer: Split Tragus, Piercing Migrated in 2020, Who Do I See? Thank you for your question, and photo. Board Certified Plastic Surgeons, and Otolaryngologists, (ENT) take care of facial soft tissue that is damaged. We see piercings go through soft tissue all of the time. These are typically repaired in the office. Damage to the cartilage may be a bit different than the skin surrounding it. Best to reach out, have a consult, and get your questions answered. Jeffrey J.
