Earlobe Repair Gallery Patient 171779

This patient was bothered by an enlarged, stretched earlobe from a prior gauge piercing that no longer reflected his current preferences.

During the consultation, the focus was on restoring a natural earlobe shape while minimizing visible scarring. Gauge piercings create thinning and elongation of the lobule, so repair involves removing the stretched edges and carefully reshaping the tissue to recreate a normal contour. The goal is a smooth, proportionate earlobe that can blend in naturally.

His results show a restored earlobe contour with a more typical shape and improved symmetry. The repair heals in a way that is subtle and unobtrusive, allowing the ear to look natural and balanced again.
