The goal of surgical earlobe repair is to restore the natural shape and appearance of the earlobes, providing a more symmetrical and balanced look. This can include:
Earlobe repair can also involve correcting earlobe piercings that have caused damage or elongation of the earlobe.

It is a simple procedure with a straightforward recovery.
