Earrings are one of the most common accessories. While most people never have any issues with their earrings, accidents do happen. If your earring gets caught on something while you’re moving quickly, it can cause a lot of damage to your earlobe.

At Dermatology Institute for Skin Cancer and Cosmetic Surgery, we can repair your damaged earlobe and restore your confidence in your appearance. Dermatologist Dr. David Harvey can carefully remove skin where the tear has formed and then suture the fresh wound together. The wound will slowly heal, which will close the tear in the lobe.

If you have a damaged earlobe that you would like repaired, contact the Dermatology Institute for Skin Cancer and Cosmetic Surgery.
