Rejuvenating Your Look with Elite Plastic Surgery

At Elite Plastic Surgery, we believe every feature contributes to your confidence—and your ears are no exception. Over time, earrings, gravity, or trauma can stretch, split, or scar your earlobes, leading to unwanted changes in appearance. Keloids or elongated piercings may make it difficult to wear earrings or feel confident in your profile. Led by the highly trained and compassionate Drs. Rozbeh, Radbeh, and Ramyar Torabi, our team offers tailored earlobe closure procedures that restore both aesthetics and comfort—with the luxury, care, and knowledge that define the Elite experience.

What is Earlobe Closure?

Earlobe repair, also known as earlobe closure, is a minimally invasive, in-office surgical procedure that corrects damage caused by earring use, trauma, or keloid formation. Whether you have a fully torn lobe, stretched piercing, or a thickened scar, our surgeons perform precise, layered closures to restore natural shape and symmetry. In certain cases, injectable fillers may be used to plump and rejuvenate thinning earlobes. For patients with keloids, we offer targeted removal with follow-up treatments to reduce the chance of recurrence.

What to Expect During Your Consultation

  • During your initial visit, your surgeon will:
  • Carefully examine your earlobes and evaluate the severity of any tearing, stretching, or keloid formation
  • Review your medical history and skin type
  • Discuss treatment options including surgical repair, filler injections, or laser removal (for keloids)
  • Outline a customized treatment and recovery plan

What Happens During the Procedure?

Earlobe repair is performed in-office under local anesthesia for your comfort.

For torn or stretched earlobes, our surgeons excise the damaged tissue and perform a three-layered closure—suturing the back, middle, and front of the earlobe for long-lasting strength and a smooth finish. This technique helps prevent cysts and maintains the natural earlobe curve.

For keloid removal, we use precision techniques such as carbon dioxide laser or electrocautery to remove the growth, followed by steroid injections to reduce recurrence.

For stretched but intact piercings, injectable fillers (such as Restylane® or Juvéderm®) may be used to plump the lobe and narrow the opening, creating a youthful, rejuvenated contour.

Recovery and Results

Recovery is typically simple and straightforward:

  • Mild swelling or tenderness may occur for a few days
  • Dissolvable or fine sutures are used, and you’ll apply antibiotic ointment to the area for about a week
  • Most patients return to daily activities immediately
  • Re-piercing is typically safe after 4–6 weeks, though it’s often best to place the new piercing slightly off the scar for strength

For keloid patients, follow-up treatments with steroid injections and silicone pressure earrings may be recommended to prevent regrowth.

Results are long-lasting, and most scars fade to near invisibility, leaving you with restored confidence and the ability to wear earrings again.
