Earlobe correction

From €750

With an earlobe correction we can easily enhance your earlobes

Uncertainty about ears or earlobes is common. Fortunately, there are several types of corrections to address this. With an earlobe correction, we easily correct and reconstruct earlobes that are too long, large, torn, or stretched. We can reduce earlobes and suture and repair torn or stretched earring holes. We can also bring protruding earlobes closer to the head. An earlobe correction is a relatively minor procedure performed under local anesthesia.

Earlobe correction clinic

torn earlobe

With a torn earlobe, we make a small incision and remove a piece of earlobe. The surgeon will burn any small bleeding vessels. He then stitches or glues the wound edges together and we cover the wound with a plaster.

Too large earlobe or earlobe reconstruction

A floppy and sagging earlobe often requires a complete overhaul of the earlobe in order to adjust the size and shape of the earlobe. In this case, the stitches and thus the scar will be at the bottom of the earlobe.

When it appears that a new earring hole is needed, the specialist will keep the earring holes open with a silicone tube that you wear in your ears for two weeks. After two weeks we replace this tube with an ulcer button. You take this earring stud with you to the check-up appointment, so that your specialist can replace the silicone tube with the stud.

The treatment process

1. Consult

The first step in any treatment is always a no-obligation consultation. During this consultation, your wishes will be discussed, and the plastic surgeon will assess whether earlobe correction will achieve the desired result. The plastic surgeon will inform you of the surgical risks and any potential complications. During the consultation, there will be time for all your questions, wishes, and concerns.

2. Operation

Before the surgery, we take several photographs. This allows us to see the clearest possible results after the earlobe correction. The plastic surgeon then marks the area and administers local anesthesia. The area to be operated on is covered with a sterile drape, after which the surgeon begins. The surgery takes an average of 30 to 60 minutes.

3. Aftercare

You can go home approximately one hour after the procedure. The wounds will be covered with bandages to protect the treatment area. In most cases, this is sufficient, and you don't need to wear a headband. It's important to keep the treatment area as clean as possible. If the wound has been sutured, we'll remove the stitches a week later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is an earlobe correction painful?

No, you won't experience any pain during the surgery due to the local anesthetic. Afterward, you may experience some pain or discomfort in the treatment area, but our patients generally report that the pain is not too bad. If you experience pain after the procedure, we recommend taking paracetamol. Avoid aspirin, as aspirin increases the risk of post-operative bleeding.
