We recommend waiting at least 3-6 months after earlobe repair before considering re-piercing. This allows complete healing and strengthening of the repaired tissue. When you do re-pierce, we suggest having it done professionally and placing the new piercing slightly away from the repaired area.
Our surgeons use fine suturing techniques that minimize scarring. While a faint line may remain, it typically fades well and is hardly noticeable within 6-12 months. The scar is usually much less obvious than the original tear or hole.
Most earlobe repairs take only 30-45 minutes to complete. We perform the procedure using local anesthesia in our comfortable office setting, allowing you to return home immediately afterward.
Yes! Once your earlobes are completely healed (typically 3-6 months), you can wear earrings again. We recommend lighter earrings initially and avoiding heavy styles that could stress the repaired tissue.
Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure. We use a gentle local anesthetic to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the repair. Any mild soreness afterward typically responds well to over-the-counter pain relievers.
Nearly all earlobe issues can be successfully repaired, including complete tears, gauge holes, and multiple piercing sites.
