Whether from heavy earrings, trauma, gauges, or aging, a torn or stretched earlobe can feel more than just cosmetic—it affects confidence and daily wearability of earrings. At Patients Medical in New York City, we offer precise, minimally invasive earlobe repair that restores natural contour and symmetry with virtually no downtime.

Alex, 32, came to us after removing his gauges years ago, but the stretched earlobes made him feel self-conscious during job interviews. He wanted a clean, professional appearance and the option to re-pierce one ear.
We performed a bilateral earlobe repair in under 60 minutes. He returned to work the next day. Three months later, the scar was barely visible and he chose a small stud to re-pierce one ear. He says, “I finally feel like myself again.”
