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

The only way to fix a split earlobe is through surgery. Split earlobe repairs are very common, short and rather standard procedures, lasting about an hour or two. They involve using sutures to close the edges of the wound on the front and back of the earlobe. With the use of local anesthesia, pain is usually very minimal. After a week, the sutures can be removed and your earlobes will be closed. A small, cosmetically acceptable amount of scarring is inevitable. And it will take about six to twelve months for this tissue to mature into an inconspicuous line.You can see an example of a split earlobe repair in the link below

Hi, In order to get a durable closure a small tissue flap surgery is necessary. This is more complicated than simply cutting the edges of the split lobe and sewing it shut. Careful planning of the flap is needed. It is done under local anesthesia in about 30 min. Mehdi Sina, MD

Split earlobes can be easily repaired surgically. The procedure requires local anesthetic, and you can drive home afterwards. Once the earlobe is repaired, it can be re-pierced of you like.

Thanks for asking. Earlobes requiring repair can be from a variety of reasons. For example, a torn earlobe from a pulled earring, gauged earlobes that are now unwanted, facelift surgery causing pulled earlobes, or just simply elongated from older age. Because of the variety of different causes, earlobe repair may vary in complexity. Prices will vary accordingly. and also vary depending on the region of the country you are in and the surgeon's expertise. Typically to correct a split earlobe, a portion from each side of the split lobe will be removed and then carefully sutured together. I have some special techniques that I employ to minimize scarring and notching that can be seen if not reconstructed properly. This repair can be performed comfortably under local anesthesia and earlobes can be re-pierced 6 weeks later if desired. Consult with an experienced board certified facial plastic / plastic surgeon in you area.

Split or torn air lobes can be repaired under local anesthesia in the office. It involves removing the skin between the torn portions of the earlobe and then repairing this with suture material. It is a fairly short procedure with a very short recovery. I would however recommend waiting six weeks before re piercing the lobe, and placing the piercing in an area slightly away from the torn repair site

Our office specializes in earlobe repair in Los Angeles. Earlobe repairs can be performed using layered sutures in order to reapproximate the torn skin. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACS

A torn earlobe can be easily fixed under local anesthesia. I have had patients do this during their lunch time and gone back to work. I recommend waiting 6 weeks before the ear is pierced again

A split earlobe can be repaired under local anesthesia at an office visit. The skin around the split is removed and the fresh edges sutured together and allowed to heal. I always warn patients that if you repierce the same area, it can rip again. Stay away from heavy earrings and don't sleep in your earrings.

Torn or split ear lobes can be repaired in the office using a local anesthetic. The split can be repaired in one of two ways. The earlobe can be completely repaired, allowed to heal, and the re-pierced after several months. Or, the split can be repaired so that you may wear a small post immediately after surgery. This earring must stay in for at least 4 weeks while the repair heals. Best wishes. Ken Dembny
