How the Procedure Works

The Ear lobules can become distorted due to multiple piercings over the years or from wearing heavy ornaments. The surgical process is simple and minimally invasive. It is typically an outpatient procedure, and patients usually drive themselves home afterward.

You can return to a normal lifestyle without many restrictions within 48 hours of the surgery. However, in these 48 hours, you must follow a few simple rules, like keeping the incision dry. Also, minimize sun exposure in the next year to prevent hyperpigmentation. To renew piercings, you must consult the surgeon before proceeding.

Before & Preparation

Earlobe Reconstruction Surgery is a minor operation. The healing and preparation largely depend on the extent of the reformation required for the earlobes.
At Nazarian Plastic Surgery, you will receive a consultation to review your overall medical history to ensure that you are a suitable candidate for the procedure.
There is no extensive preparation procedure needed for the surgery.
The process takes around 1- 1.5 hours, and patients need not take extensive day-offs for recovery.
You can book your operation date at your convenience and come in for the treatment at the scheduled time.

During the Procedure

Patients must show up at the scheduled date and time for the operation to start the procedure without delay. The time required for local anesthesia to take effect is included in the appointment schedule.
Your surgeon will clean the treatment area and apply a local anesthetic to eliminate discomfort.
In case of enlarged lobule tissue loss, your surgeon may employ a two-step process using the auricular flap to recreate the lobule.
The patient can stay awake through the procedure, which takes 1-1.5 hours, depending on the severity of the deformation.

Aftercare & Recovery

Swelling and redness quickly disappear within a matter of days.
Plan on a 2 to 7-day healing time, depending on the procedure performed.
We ask that our patients avoid wearing earrings and submersion in water for six weeks to allow optimal healing.
It is vital to keep the incision site dry for 48 hours and avoid excessive sun exposure for at least a year to avoid hyperpigmentation.

Earlobe Reconstruction Reviews

“Dr. Sheila Nazarian--

After having a horrible experience at another Dr's office, I came in to express how unhappy I was with the results of my Otoplasty. You offered hope and worked diligently to correct someone else's MISTAKES!!! I just wanted to take this time to thank you, again. It has been something that has bothered me the majority of my life and ever since the corrective earlobe procedure; I can't explain how happy I am. I can look at myself in the mirror and not be drawn to my botched ear job. I feel that interactions with others are not that uncomfortable as my new earlobes are much more symmetrical. Natural but ascetic and smaller but balanced. Best money I have ever spent. I wish I met you 20 years ago. Thank you for changing my life and for being such an inspiration!”
