Closing up old ear piercing from infancy - how much would it cost in my area?

Question

I’ve had my ears pierced since I was two years old and now as an adult, hate the placement of the piercing. I only have one hole in each ear but one office quoted me $1400+ because they still follow the same procedure if my ear was stretched - which it isn’t. What is the average cost of this based on the MVA region?

Leila Kasrai, MD, FRCSC · Answer

Each surgeon determines their own pricing, therefore it would be difficult to give you an average. Typically, however, the cost is based on the area targeted. So, for example, you would be looking at earlobe surgery.

Eric M. Joseph, MD · Answer

We may surgically repair a previous piercing when it is enlarged and unsightly. Many times, it's best to just re-pierce the ear lobe where you would like the new stud to be. I hope this helps! Sincerely, Dr. Joseph.
