Earlobe repair is plastic surgery. However, in addition to the aesthetic enhancement, damage or deformity is corrected. Although it is minimally invasive, it requires a trained and experienced surgeon to be performed safely and correctly. Dr. Rubinstein's approach to torn or gauged earlobes repairs the ear tissue and the damage with minimal scarring, giving most patients the ability to wear lightweight earrings again within a few months. Earlobe repair surgery most often results in a more attractive, rejuvenated, and youthful appearance.
