Earlobe Reduction and Repair

Earlobes may seem like a small detail, but they play an important role in overall facial balance.

Over time, earlobes can stretch, droop, or tear due to aging, heavy earrings, piercings, or trauma.

These subtle changes often become noticeable and can make it difficult to wear jewelry or feel confident about your appearance.

At Clinic 5C in Spokane, we offer earlobe reduction and repair surgery to restore natural shape and proportion.

Whether your earlobes have stretched with age, torn from earrings, or been permanently widened from gauges, our team can help you achieve a more refined, harmonious look.

What Is Earlobe Reduction and Repair?

Earlobe reduction and repair is a minor surgical procedure that corrects stretched, torn, or enlarged earlobes.

Depending on your needs, the procedure may involve removing excess tissue, reshaping the earlobe, or repairing a tear from a piercing.

The goal is to restore a natural contour that blends seamlessly with the rest of the ear and face.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a candidate for earlobe surgery if you have:

• Torn or split earlobes from earrings or trauma
• Large holes from gauges or stretched piercings
• Naturally long or wide earlobes
• Creases or sagging that make the lobes appear aged
• A desire to re-pierce your ears after repair

How the Procedure Works

Earlobe repair is typically performed in our Spokane clinic using local anesthesia.

The exact technique depends on the nature of the stretch or tear:

1. Consultation – We evaluate your earlobes, discuss your goals, and create a tailored surgical plan.
2. Reshaping or Repair – Small incisions are made to remove stretched tissue, repair tears, or reduce size.
3. Refinement – The earlobe is sculpted to achieve natural symmetry and balance.
4. Suturing – Dissolvable stitches are placed for minimal scarring and smooth healing.

Most patients are surprised by how quick and straightforward the procedure feels.

Recovery and Healing

Recovery from earlobe repair is simple and relatively comfortable.

You may experience mild swelling or tenderness for a few days, but most patients resume normal activities right away.

At Clinic 5C, recovery is elevated with advanced support options:

• Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for faster tissue healing
• LED light therapy to reduce inflammation
• Nutritional and regenerative medicine support to optimize recovery
• Scar management protocols to ensure subtle, discreet results

Results Patients Can Expect

Results from earlobe surgery are immediate and long-lasting. Patients often notice:

• Smaller, more proportionate earlobes
• Restored ability to wear earrings
• More youthful facial balance
• A discreet, natural appearance

In many cases, ears can be re-pierced once healing is complete.
