Earlobe Repair in Tampa, FL
Restore Your Earlobes with a Simple, In-Office Repair
Earlobe repair is a simple, in-office procedure designed to restore the natural shape and appearance of the earlobe. Over time, heavy earrings, stretching, or trauma can cause the earlobe to become elongated, torn, or uneven.
Board-certified in facial plastic surgery, Dr. Demetri performs earlobe repair at his Tampa clinic and surgery center. Through precise techniques, he removes damaged tissue and reshapes the earlobe for a smooth, natural-looking result. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and typically takes less than an hour, making it a convenient option for patients looking to correct stretched or torn earlobes.
With careful suturing and attention to detail, the goal is to minimize visible scarring while restoring balance and allowing for future re-piercing once healing is complete.
