I have recently had a cyst surgically removed from the back of my earlobe and was wondering if I could get it repierced and if so how long should I wait? Thanks

Answer: Re piercing ears after surgery Great Question! Definitely wait until your incision is completely healed. this should take 3 - 6 weeks. I recommend re piercing after 3 - 6 months to assure no complications occur and most importantly, get the approval from your physician prior!

Answer: Ear lobe piercing after cyst removal Dear gracesaycell,I would wait at least 2-3 months for your ear lobe to heal about after cyst removal and to allow the tensile strength of the scar to increase. I would also revisit your surgeon who removed the cyst to evaluate the scar prior to getting it pierced again. Best of luck!
