UNDERSTANDING EARLOBE REPAIR IN ATLANTA

Earlobe repair is a reconstructive plastic surgery procedure designed
to correct split, ripped, torn, drooping, stretched-out, or unusually
large earlobes. Atlanta plastic surgeon Dr. Mark Deutsch, MD, FACS,
regularly performs this precise surgical technique for patients
throughout the Atlanta metropolitan area.

COMMON REASONS FOR EARLOBE REPAIR

Patients seek earlobe repair for various reasons, including:

 	* Correction of congenital or hereditary earlobe deformities
	* Damage from heavy or large pierced earrings
	* Repair of earlobe damage caused by ear gauging
	* Reconstruction after acute trauma or injury

CAUSES OF EARLOBE DAMAGE

Earlobes are uniquely vulnerable to damage due to their soft, pliable
composition. The most common causes of earlobe damage include:

 	* Prolonged use of heavy or oversized earrings
	* Ear gauging or intentional earlobe stretching
	* Sudden traumatic injuries
	* Natural aging processes

THE EARLOBE REPAIR PROCEDURE

Dr. Deutsch performs earlobe repair as an outpatient procedure in his
Atlanta office. The surgical approach varies depending on the extent
of damage:

 	* Local anesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort
	* Surgical techniques range from simple suturing to tissue
reconstruction
	* Procedure duration: 15 minutes to one hour
	* Minimal discomfort and immediate return to normal activities

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect the following after earlobe repair:

 	* Initial surgical dressing to prevent infection
	* Minimal pain manageable with over-the-counter medication
	* Complete healing within 6-8 weeks
	* Option to re-pierce ears after 2-3 months

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

While earlobe repair can restore a natural appearance, patients should
be aware that repaired lobes may be more susceptible to future damage.
Dr. Deutsch recommends avoiding heavy earrings and carefully selecting
future piercings.
