What are Earlobe Repair and Earlobe Rejuvenation?
Earlobe repair typically addresses tears, sagging, thinning, or deformities in the lobes caused by:
- Long-term earring wear (especially heavy earrings)
- Aging-related volume loss and wrinkling
- Gauging or stretching of the lobes
- Accidental trauma (like an earring being pulled)
Rejuvenation, on the other hand, refers to subtle enhancements—such as dermal filler injections—to restore fullness, improve skin texture, and soften creases. It is often combined with laser treatments to enhance skin tone and texture.

Who’s a Good Candidate for Earlobe Repair?
Dr. Lattman will assess your earlobes and help determine the most appropriate surgical or non-surgical option for your needs. You may be an ideal candidate for earlobe rejuvenation or repair if you:
- Have torn, stretched, or split earlobes due to earrings or injury

- Have noticed thinning, wrinkling, or “deflated” earlobes due to aging

What to Expect During Earlobe Surgery in the Upper East Side
Earlobe repair is performed in-office under local anesthesia and typically takes about 30–45 minutes per lobe. During the procedure, Dr. Lattman carefully excises any scar tissue and reconstructs the earlobe to restore a smooth, natural contour. If rejuvenation is the goal, she may use filler to subtly volumize the lobe, or perform CO₂ laser resurfacing to improve skin tone and texture. Patients go home the same day and can resume light activities immediately.
Recovery After Earlobe Surgery
Healing is generally quick and comfortable. Ears can typically be re-pierced 8-10 weeks after surgery. Dr. Lattman will guide you on the timing and proper placement for optimal healing and aesthetics. Most patients experience:
- Mild swelling or tenderness for 1–2 days
- Little to no downtime
- Suture removal 7 days post-procedure
- Scar fading over several months (minimal and well-hidden)
Earlobe Repair Cost in NYC
The cost of earlobe repair or rejuvenation varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether one or both lobes are being treated. During your consultation, Dr. Lattman will provide a personalized quote and help you determine whether surgical or non-surgical treatment is the best option for you.
Earlobe Rejuvenation Maintenance
For non-surgical rejuvenation, dermal filler results generally last 6 to 12 months, depending on the product used and your body’s metabolism. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled annually or as needed to preserve volume. Laser treatments can be repeated seasonally or annually to maintain optimal skin texture and elasticity.

NYC Earlobe Repair & Rejuvenation FAQs
Does earlobe repair hurt?
No, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and patients typically report minimal discomfort during or after treatment.
Will there be a scar?
Yes, but Dr. Lattman places her incisions with care and closes them meticulously. Scars are usually faint and hidden along the natural contours of the earlobe.
Can I get my ears pierced again after repair?
Yes, usually 8-10 weeks after healing. Dr. Lattman will guide re-piercing placement to minimize the risk of future damage.
Is filler safe in the earlobes?
Yes, when performed by a qualified injector like Dr. Lattman, filler can restore structure and improve symmetry—delivering natural-looking results.
Can I combine this with other procedures?
Absolutely. Many patients choose to pair earlobe rejuvenation with Botox, filler, or eyelid surgery for a more comprehensive facial refresh.
How long does earlobe repair take?
Most earlobe repairs take approximately 30 minutes per lobe and are performed in-office under local anesthesia.

Yes. Dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, can restore volume and firmness to aging or deflated earlobes—without surgery.
What kind of filler is used for earlobe rejuvenation?
Dr. Lattman typically uses soft, flexible fillers—such as Juvéderm® or Restylane®—to match the natural feel and movement of the earlobe.
Will I need to take time off work?
No downtime is typically required. Most patients are able to return to their normal routine immediately after treatment.
How soon after earlobe repair can I resume physical activity?
You can resume light activity right away, but we recommend avoiding vigorous exercise and wearing earrings for at least one week.
