What is Earlobe Repair?

Earlobe repair is a minor surgical procedure that corrects damage to the earlobes, restoring their natural shape and structure. Whether the earlobe has been stretched from prolonged earring wear or torn from an injury, this procedure effectively repairs and reshapes the earlobe area. During earlobe repair surgery, Dr. Daraei carefully sutures the affected tissue to ensure minimal scarring and a natural-looking outcome.

Candidates for Earlobe Repair

Ideal candidates for earlobe repair include those with torn, stretched, or damaged earlobes wanting to restore their natural appearance. This procedure is ideal for those who want to correct the effects of heavy earrings, gauging, or accidental injuries. During a consultation with Dr. Daraei, he will evaluate your concerns and recommend the best approach to achieve optimal results.

Earlobe Repair Procedure

Earlobe repair is a quick, in-office procedure performed under local anesthesia to ensure optimal patient comfort. During the earlobe repair procedure, Dr. Daraei carefully trims excess tissue, reshapes the earlobe, and sutures it to create a smooth and natural appearance. The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes to complete, depending on the extent of the damage. Patients can expect minimal discomfort and a relatively quick recovery.

Earlobe Repair Recovery

Recovery from earlobe repair is generally straightforward, with minor swelling and redness expected for the first few days. Patients should follow post-procedure care instructions, including keeping the area clean and avoiding unnecessary pressure on the ears. Sutures are typically removed within one to two weeks, and most individuals can resume normal activities immediately. If desired, the earlobe can be re-pierced after full healing, usually within a few months.

“I never felt rushed”

During the consultation all my questions were answered and Dr.
Daraei suggested the tissue removal from my eyelids. He mentioned the slightly swollen look that I thought was a sinus condition. When he showed me how much of my eyelid was hidden, l was amazed. He then took the time to explain the procedures I might want and answered every question I had. At no time did he make me feel pressured or rushed or that he had somewhere else to go.

“I love the results”

Dr. Daraei was initially recommended to me by a friend. I was particularly picky about who I wanted to do my rhinoplasty because I have ethnic features and I've also heard of people needing more expensive repeat procedures to fix their first rhinoplasty.
He has made the experience very smooth by being thorough, reassuring, and patient. I am about a year post op and I love the results, can't recommend him enough!

“Dr. Daraei is the best doctor”

If you're interested in rhinoplasty, Dr. Daraei is the best doctor to go to! I came to him with a deviated nose and severe breathing issues.
Now, only a month out of surgery, my breathing is amazing and my nose looks beautiful! I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Daraei and his work!!

“Absolutely no Judgment”

This was my first foray into the world of plastic surgery. While I try to keep myself in shape, the condition around my eyes made me look old and tired. Of course, I was nervous when I met with Dr. Daraei and his staff for the consultation. Everyone was very nice and there was absolutely no judgment projected toward me by any of the staff.
In fact, the entire staff and Dr. Daraei seemed genuinely enthusiastic about helping me feel better about my appearance.

“Would do it Again!”

Dr. Paul Daraei performed blepharoplasty on both my eyes. He removed the very pronounced bags from under my eyes and removed tissue from my upper eyelids that made it look like I did not have eyebags, when my eyes were open. Let me say this is the best thing I have done for my appearance and would do it again!
