Ear Lobe Reduction or Hole Closure

Request A Consultation

About Ear Lobe Reduction or Hole Closure

This surgery is used to repair lobes that have been stretched, either from earrings or as a part of regular aging. During this procedure the earlobe is reconstructed to either fix a large hole or to remove excess earlobe length.

Timeline

  1. The Consult

    You will need an initial consult with Dr. Esmail to determine if you are a candidate for the surgery.
  2. Surgery

    The procedure is done under local anesthetic and usually takes between 30-45 minutes. You will be able to drive yourself home from the procedure. There is minimal pain once the freezing wears off. Most people are okay with Tylenol and Advil for pain relief.
  3. One Week After Surgery

    Sutures are removed post-op day seven. The incisions are completely healed by two months and by this time you are able to re-pierce the ear.

Benefits

  • More youthful looking ear lobes
  • The ability to re-pierce your ears
  • Wear earrings

Am I a Candidate?

If you feel like your earlobes are too long or you have a stretched ear lobe from earrings, you are a candidate for this surgery.

About the Surgery

This is an outpatient treatment, lasting approximately an hour and done under local anesthesia.

Risks

As with any surgical procedure bleeding, infection and scarring are risks.

Recovery

Relatively little downtime. Stitches generally dissolve after one week.

What to Expect from Your Ear Lobe Reduction Procedure

The procedure is relatively painless. Once the freezing is in, you may only feel a little bit of pulling and tugging. Depending on the size of the hole he may have only dissolvable or may also have non-dissolvable sutures that need to come out after one week. You are again able to re-pierce your ear lobes after two months.

Choosing a Surgeon for an Ear Lobe Reduction Procedure

Dr. Esmail is considered one of the top facial plastic surgeons in Canada. When choosing which surgeon will perform your ear lobe reduction procedure, make sure you do your research and ask to see images of their past results.

About Dr. Ali Esmail, MD

Dr. Ali Esmail Visage
Dr. Ali Esmail is Winnipeg’s first and only fellowship trained Facial Plastic Surgeon. Unlike a ‘general plastic surgeon’, Dr. Esmail has 6 years of specialized training that focuses primarily on procedures from the neck up. Facial plastic surgery requires extreme attention to detail, an eye for symmetry and a drive for perfection. When it comes to someone’s face there is no room for error, and at Visage, this is the very work ethic that drives our entire team. It is those attributes that originally attracted Dr. Esmail to the field of facial plastic surgery. His obsessive attention to detail and keen eye for aesthetic symmetry is what makes him one of the most exciting and top young surgeons in the field.
