Earlobe repair and reduction is a surgical procedure, so patients should expect to have some slight swelling or discomfort after their procedure. You’ll have to avoid sleeping on your sides to prevent pressure on your ears until the sutures are dissolved. This is generally a week but may vary for everyone. Following your earlobe repair or reduction surgery, patients generally find their recovery time to be minimal and can go back to work right away.
Oversized earlobes might be a result of various things. Most commonly, it is performed on older patients who have noticed their earlobes sagging and becoming larger due to gravity, the weight of wearing earrings, or simply as a side effect of aging.
