Constantly wearing big, heavy, or bulky earrings can cause a split or tear apart your earlobes. Some of us don’t take into consideration the negative impact of wearing heavy earrings will have on our earlobes. Our earlobes are a very delicate and soft area in our ears, by wearing big gauges everyday you are increasing the chances of stretching your earlobe at an increasingly high rate. This can cause the skin to stretch out and can possibly cause a tear of the earlobe. Another negative outcome of this, is once you decide to take off your gauges your earlobe will be extremely stretched out and the only way to fix it is by having an earlobe repair surgery.
If you suffer from this problem we can help you! At our ScarlessMedSpa™ we offer a treatment to resolve this issue. The Earlobe enhancement or repair procedure can be done for individuals who have large, ripped or stretched out wide ear piercing hole. The Dermal filler can be injected to add volume to the base of the ear lobe to help support the tissues surrounding it. If the earlobe is extremely stretched out too much or worst case, if a tear occurs, Dr. Dugar can perform a simple repair in the clinic where he sutures the ear lobe in an aesthetically successful way to reconstruct an earlobe back to normality. For this procedure we use local anesthesia, and there is no pain or downtime!
