Earlobe tears are pretty common and for the simple ones repair can be done in the office under local anesthesia (numbing shots.) The picture above is a before and after shot from a case in our South Orange County office. The larger repairs from plugs and infection problems with tissue loss are more complicated. Health insurance usually doesn’t cover this type of work, but single-sided simple repairs are not terribly expensive.
