A earlobe reduction is an amazing procedure if you want to revive your facial appearance to look revived, naturally tighter, less saggy and tired. Ear surgery includes shape changing, reduction or repair of torn or partially torn earlobes. This is a popular surgery usually performed under local anaesthesia with reliable results and high satisfaction.
An ear lobe repair procedure is actually very common as it is used to reform the ear lobe, reduce the size or even fix the torn or stretched holes that were created for earrings. A split or torn earlobe is a frequent aesthetic deformity of the ear that both men and women often opt for to:
An ear lobe repair surgery is ideal for men and women of all ages, but a consultation with an experienced professional will be able to determine if this is truly the best option for you as the degree of the ear lobe tear or concern can determine the kind of repair needed.
Ear and earlobe lobe surgery is a common procedure and mainly performed under local anaesthesia. These procedures often help those who are frustrated with the shape (bat ears), large earlobes or holes created for earrings that have torn. It also can repair the large holes in earlobes that are common for both men and women. Cutting a small notch on the torn lobe then meticulously stitching the lobe back together is generally how this procedure is performed. Those patients wanting to re-pierce the lobe may do so after about 6 months.
Process of Ear Lobe Repair
While the simple and effective procedure of an ear lobe repair can be described as cutting a small notch on the ear lobe to then stitch it back together, there is some information pertaining to this surgery that you may want to be aware of.
Further more, the procedure will start with the local anesthesia, and in order to rebuild the earlobe, the healed and scarred elements have to be removed, if this applies to the type of ear lobe repair procedure you are receiving. The repair is then performed in a zigzag or straight line and fine threads are used to support the repair and minimise possible scarring.
Potential Risks or Complications With an Ear Lobe Repair
This procedure is extremely simple, but just like all types of surgery; it does have potential complications and side effects, although they too are minimal. You could experience excessive scar formation, notching, infection or recurrence, which is why it is so crucial to seek a trained professional to complete the ear lobe repair.

What is my followup post ear surgery?
Following surgery, you will be provided with specific aftercare instructions. The recovery process after earlobe repair is minimal. It is common for patients to experience some mild discomfort, which is easily alleviated with over-the-counter pain medication. Sutures are typically removed within a week. If you are planning to get your ears re-pierced, it is recommended that you wait at least two months in order to ensure proper healing.
Some sutures will be removed after 7 days and your wound checked. The remaining sutures will be removed 10 days to 2 weeks later.
The best candidates for ear and earlobe surgery are men and women of all ages who meet one or more of the criteria listed below:

Earlobe repair surgery is a relatively simple procedure performed under local anesthesia. The skin is trimmed around the torn or stretched. Once the excess skin has been removed, then the wound edges are sutured back together.

The results of earlobe repair should be permanent once it has settled down. Try not to re-pierce your ears immediately following surgery and do not resume wearing heavy earrings for extended periods of time, or there is the chance that you will require further surgery.
As with any surgery, earlobe repair does present some degree of risk. The chance of experiencing complications during this treatment, or as a result of it, are uncommon and the doctor or his staff will go through all of the potential risks with you prior to surgery. Some of the potential risks include infection, excessive scarring, notching or recurrence.
The surgeon who performed your surgery will see you after six weeks for a follow-up assessment and as often as required until you are fully recovered. It is vital that you attend all necessary postoperative appointments.
Some sutures will be removed after 7 days and your wound checked. The remaining sutures will be removed 10 days to 2 weeks later.

The dream team of expert hands and consideration for a very nervous Vaser & fat transfer patient
As someone who was always anti “quick fix”, i found after losing substantial weight in a year i was left with areas i just could not fix. After my 1st consultation with Dr Edwin and Suki about Vaser and fat transfer i knew i was absolutely with the right people.
No sales pitch, unrealistic expectations or pressure. Dr Edwin really put me at ease with his knowledge and advise and Suki was an absolute delight in making me feel comfortable.
On my 2nd consultation Dr Edwin answered everything with just as much expertise and patience as the 1st time. I met Gill too who was the absolute best support during my procedure from start to finish. She was so calming and considerate with my nerves, endless questions and prep for the big procedure, she’s an absolute asset to the EA team.
Dr Edwin, Gill and the anatheasist Dr Abbas (who is hilarious) were the absolute dream team for an incredibly nervous and needle phobic patient. Honestly, they’re just overall great people.
I’m still recovering from a pretty large procedure but the immediate results were obvious and delightful and it’s all down to EA Clinic.
I’m no cosmetic procedure junkie but given the investment i made with my body and trust i put into Dr Edwin’s hands he will be the only one i go to for any touch ups as i honestly won’t go anywhere else after the magnificent service i received and I’d advice anyone to go to EA Clinic.

Vaser liposuction. My experience was first class from the very first consultation through to the procedure itself and the aftercare. Dr Anthony, Nurse Gillian and Suki are professional, supportive and just very nice people who genuinely care about their patients and make the time to offer whatever is needed. I am a huge fan of EA clinic and will continue to pop in from time to time, I would strongly encourage anyone considering this procedure in particular to go with EA clinic; Ed and Gillian are very experienced and great at what they do (I can see amazing results already just two weeks in!). I heavily researched vaser before deciding to go ahead and would not have gone anywhere else. Make sure you have the aftercare with Suki, she is excellent!

Wonderful clinic with great attentive staff. My overall experience has been very pleasurable. The day of surgery was excellent, the staff were amazing and paid attention to my every need even down to helping me use the toilet post op. Overall my results have been great with Dr Edwin Anthony, who made me feel less anxious with his expertise knowledge. He gave me the tiny waist i always wanted and the follow up post op has been excellent. I cannot thank Dr Edwin Anthony enough, and a big thank you to Gill and the rest of his team also who were all very nice and welcoming.
I’m only one week post op and cannot wait to see the end result!

I had the best surgical experience from the beginning to the end. I would even have the surgery over again, the whole experience was exceptional. Mr Shaaban, Dr Anthony, nurse Gill and Suki have gone above and beyond. They are kind, trustworthy, sensitive and honest. Even the anesthetist Dr Abbas was so empathetic and calm, he really made me feel at peace as I was so anxious.I love them and would recommend EVERYONE to them. The after care was superb, 24/7. They treated me like a member of their own family , I felt special and genuinely cared for. I was able to text or ring them at any time in which they got straight back to me. I absolutely love my implants, my self confidence has completely gone above my expectations. I shall be a client of EA for life. Highly highly recommend, easily the best clinic in the world! Thank you so much to you all xxx
