Earlobe Reconstruction grows in popularity

In just a few months the Skin Surgery Clinic has become one of the UK’s leading clinics for earlobe reconstruction and repair. Today we have a look at the earlobe procedures we offer at the Clinic and why people are travelling from far and wide to have them here in Leeds.

Outstanding medical team

We were delighted in August to welcome Andrew Williams, Consultant Plastic Surgeon, to join our medical team here at the Clinic. Mr Williams is a Cambridge-educated surgeon with fifteen years of experience specialising in cosmetic procedures and skin cancer treatment.

Mr Williams had recently published a case study in the Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery on his method for returning earlobes stretched by flesh tunnel and plug arrangements to a standard shape and size, and we were excited that he chose our clinic to offer this procedure in to the general public. Our medical director Mr David Watt also performs earlobe reconstruction operations now too.

We’ve had immediate interest from men and women from all over the North of England, and the patients have been very happy with the results.

“Staff all excellent – comforting and friendly. Clinic was clean and welcoming.One week in, the ear is looking great – healed much better than expected in the short space of time, with little associated pain. You won’t be able to tell in a few more weeks!”

Stretched Earlobe Reconstruction

Mr Mackie had both his earlobes reconstructed by Andrew Williams and was delighted by the appearance of them even just one week after surgery.

Industry leading facilities

Increasing number of patients are already booking in to have their earlobes repaired in 2015 – even coming from abroad on the strength of our reputation and testimonials of people we’ve previously treated.

Part of that reputation comes from our recently upgraded Minor Operations Suite (MOPS). The operating room in the Suite has air filtration and surgical lighting systems of a standard usually found in private hospitals. The preparation and recovery rooms offer patients privacy and comfort while they prepare for and relax after their procedures.

The Care Quality Commission classes the Skin Surgery Clinic as a “day case hospital”, which isn’t something that can be achieved by a high street beauty salon or tattoo studio. We’re proud of our medical facilities and the standards of expertise and care our staff provide.

Coming next year

We’re planning to introduce a video of the earlobe reconstruction procedure, much as with our extremely popular laser mole removal service. We’ll also be putting up more genuine reviews from patients who’ve had stretched or split earlobes repairs here at our clinic in Leeds, West Yorkshire.

If you’re considering having flesh tunnels removed, or any other repairs to your earlobes, we’re always happy to advise you on how to proceed. You can complete an online consultation where our medical team will assess your earlobes prior to booking you in for a procedure, or you can call us on 01943 882011.
