Are You Finished with Your Ear Gauges?

Whether you no longer like the look of ear gauges as a fashion style or longer earlobes are getting in the way of life’s activities, you can have earlobe correction surgery by a board certified Lubbock plastic surgeon. Earlobe procedures are becoming increasingly popular as people get older and want to reverse the decisions of their youth which intentionally enlarged their earlobes.

Gauge Correction Procedure

The procedure is not complicated and usually done as an outpatient procedure with local anesthetics. Your doctor removes excess lobe tissue then artistically stitches up your lobe to look like a normal earlobe. Patients may have some bruising and tenderness. Pain is managed with over-the-counter pain medications. If you want to have your ears pierced again, you can do that during the surgery. Your doctor will place small stud earrings in your ears that will need to stay in place for at least two weeks. When you are planning your surgery and if you smoke, you will need to stop smoking before your surgery and after while you heal.
