Stretched Earlobe Reconstruction in Newcastle
Flesh tunnels, flesh plugs and other heavy gauge jewellery can stretch the earlobes beyond the skin's natural capacity to shrink back. Generally, a hole more than 10mm in diameter will remain stretched, but this will vary depending on how quickly the hole was stretched and a person's natural skin elasticity.
Many patients find the remaining hole unsightly and wish to recreate their original earlobe shape.
We are delighted to be able to offer this treatment with no waiting list to patients in our clinic in Gateshead Team Valley, easily accessible from Newcastle, Sunderland, Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, Blyth, Consett, Chester-le-Street, South Shields and North Shields.
What are my options for stretched earlobe reconstruction?
We offer surgical reconstruction of the earlobe(s) with one of our highly experienced Consultant Plastic Surgeons.
The surgeon will discuss your hopes from surgery with you and then carry out a procedure in one of our Minor Operating Suites. During the procedure, some tissue and skin will be removed from your earlobe(s) and then the lobe(s) will be carefully stitched back together.
After the surgery is complete you will return home the same day. We will later review your healing and, if needed, remove any non-dissolvable stitches.

Who carries out this procedure
What are my treatment options for Stretched Earlobe Reconstruction?
Stretched earlobe reconstruction is a surgical procedure carried out in our Minor Operations Suite (MOPS).
The procedure involves the removal of the earlobe's excess skin and the reconnection of the tissue. A anaesthetic injection will minimise any discomfort you might feel. We are able to reconstruct either one or both earlobes during a single procedure.
The length of time to reconstruct one earlobe is approximately 45 minutes and for both earlobes, just over an hour.
The cost of the procedure is £760 for one earlobe reconstruction procedure and £1150 for both earlobes during the same procedure.
