Earlobe reduction surgery aims to make the earlobes smaller and more youthful-looking by recontouring them. As we age, our earlobes can naturally grow longer and larger. This procedure helps reduce the size and improve the shape of the earlobes, addressing aesthetic concerns and enhancing overall facial harmony.
Earlobe reduction is a straightforward outpatient procedure that typically takes around 30 minutes. It can be performed under local anaesthesia, allowing patients to remain awake. The surgeon will recontour the earlobes by removing excess skin and tissue. Various methods can be used, depending on the desired outcome and the initial condition of the earlobes. The resulting scars are usually minimal and well-concealed.
Post-procedure, patients can usually leave the clinic shortly after the surgery. To support the ears and minimize swelling, a sports headband or a bandage may be recommended, especially at night. Resting for a few hours after the surgery is advisable, and keeping the head elevated can help reduce swelling. The procedure is generally not very painful, and most patients can return to work the next day. However, it is important to avoid activities that may damage the wounds, particularly when dressing.
