I am 14 years and currently have a issue of having larger earlobe and about the shape of my ear. I am thinking about having a surgery as soon as possible and hope that my ear may come in shape so i would like get some suggestion about it.
Answer: Earlobe reduction surgery to correct unwanted shape of ear Our office repairs earlobes after a traumatic tear of earrings, gauge piercings, or after a facelift in which the earlobes are stretched. Earlobe surgery is composed of several techniques that can either repair torn earlobes (split earlobes) or correct overly redundant earlobe tissue from piercings or genetics or stretching. Our HIDEF earlobe repair includes a recontouring of the earlobe contour using multi-layered sutures to reapproximate the curvature of the earlobe; while simultaneously restoring contour to the ear. In patients with pixie ears after facelift surgery, an alternate technique is used to reduce the dependance of the earlobe on the facelift flap. Facelift surgery can reshape the earlobe and this requires restoration. Sutures are usually taken out within 10 days and the wound is repierced in 4-6 weeks thereafter. Keloid scars must be addressed in patients with known history for scarring.

Answer: Earlobe scars There is no such thing as scarless surgery. However, these scars heal very well because the earlobe closure will be virtually tension free. After one year, the scars will fade to a very fine line. However, you must weight the scars versus the reduction. Best wishes.

Answer: Will the scar disappear after ear lobe reduction surgery if so how long will it take? Scars will fade with time but will never completely "disappear”. Therefore, it is very Important to make your decisions carefully; make sure that your concern about your ear lobes is sufficient to under take the procedure, understanding that every surgical procedure carries risks. Generally speaking, if you choose your plastic surgeon carefully, you should end up with a fine line scar that is minimally visible after the healing process is complete. You may find the attached link helpful to you as you learn more. Best wishes.
