EARLOBE REPAIR NORTH CHARLESTON, SC | NATIONAL FACIAL PLASTIC & LASER
SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING EARLOBE REDUCTION SURGERY

Earlobe repair is a specialized otoplasty procedure designed to resize
or reconstruct floppy or hanging earlobes. This minimally invasive
surgical technique enhances ear proportions, creating a more youthful
and balanced facial appearance.

COMMON CAUSES OF EARLOBE ELONGATION

 	* Natural aging process
	* Heavy earrings
	* Ear gauges
	* Genetic predisposition
	* Previous facelift surgeries

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

The earlobe reduction procedure is performed as an outpatient surgery
under local anesthesia. The technique involves making an unobtrusive
incision, removing excess tissue, and carefully aligning torn edges
using precise suturing methods.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR EARLOBE REPAIR

Individuals who are healthy, non-smokers, and desire improvement in
their earlobe appearance are typically excellent candidates for this
procedure. The surgery is suitable for children, teenagers, and adults
seeking aesthetic enhancement.

POST-SURGICAL EXPECTATIONS

Recovery is typically straightforward with minimal discomfort.
Patients can manage post-operative pain with over-the-counter
medication or prescribed pain relief. The healing process takes
approximately one week, with minimal scarring.

WEARING EARRINGS AFTER SURGERY

Patients should wait six months before re-piercing their ears to
ensure proper healing. When resuming earrings, it is recommended to
choose lightweight studs or small hoops to prevent future stretching.

BENEFITS OF EARLOBE REDUCTION

 	* Improved aesthetic balance
	* Enhanced facial symmetry
	* Restored self-confidence
	* Ability to wear earrings and hairstyles again
	* Minimal surgical intervention

CONSULTATION PROCESS

During the consultation, Dr. Russell will perform a comprehensive
physical examination and discuss individual aesthetic goals. The
