Full Case Details:
Many minor cosmetic procedures, such as ear lobe tear repair, keloid excision, scar revision, ear lobe reduction, limited liposuction and minor cosmetic eye procedures can be done in the office under local anesthesia. With repair of torn earlobes, it is important to preserve a smooth and round contour to the lobule. The typical procedure, which uses a straight line closure, often results in a visible notch. Dr. Westreich uses specialized flaps in order to maintain a smooth appearance, as shown here.
