What does your Lobuloplasty/ Ear lobe repair journey at V6 clinics look like?

Lobuloplasty, or ear lobe repair, is a relatively simple and minimally invasive procedure. Here’s an overview of the step-by-step process involved:

Consultation:
Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation with a cosmetic surgeon. During this consultation, your surgeon will assess the extent of the damage to your earlobe(s), discuss your goals, and determine the best approach for repair.
Preparation:
On the day of the procedure, the treatment area will be cleansed and sterilized to minimize the risk of infection. Local anesthesia is applied to numb the ear, ensuring a painless experience throughout the surgery. Since general anesthesia is not required, the patient remains awake during the procedure.
Incision and Repair:
- For Stretched Earlobes: The surgeon makes small incisions along the edges of the elongated ear hole. The excess tissue is removed, and the remaining earlobe tissue is carefully sutured to reconstruct its natural shape.
- For Torn Earlobes: If the earlobe is torn due to trauma or heavy earrings, the surgeon will remove any scar tissue and precisely stitch the two sides of the tear back together.
- For Gauged Earlobes: The enlarged hole left by gauges or plugs will be reduced. The surgeon removes excess tissue and reconstructs the earlobe’s shape with fine sutures.
Suturing:
The surgeon uses fine stitches to close the incisions and ensure a smooth, natural appearance. These sutures are typically absorbable, meaning they dissolve on their own, or they can be removed after about a week, depending on the surgeon’s recommendation.
Post-Procedure Care:
After the procedure, the surgeon will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help ensure optimal healing. This includes keeping the area clean, avoiding water exposure to the site for a few days, and refraining from wearing earrings or applying pressure to the ears during the healing period.
Follow-Up:
A follow-up appointment may be scheduled after a week to monitor healing and remove any non-dissolvable stitches. During this appointment, the surgeon will check the results and provide guidance on when it’s safe to resume wearing earrings or have your ears re-pierced.
