COLOBOMA AURIS

maxillofacial surgery




WHAT IS EARLOBE REPAIR SURGERY
THE PROCEDURE
RECOVERY TIME

The earlobe, composed mainly of skin and fat and lacking cartilaginous support, is particularly prone to tearing. Coloboma auris can range from a minor distortion or elongation of the earring hole (partial coloboma) to a complete split of the earlobe (complete coloboma), often presenting as a cleft or bifid lobe.
Coloboma auris correction is a purely aesthetic procedure performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia. Dr. Raffaele Castaldo employs advanced surgical techniques to restore the natural shape of the earlobe. During the procedure, Dr. Castaldo carefully incises the edges of the torn lobe and performs precise suturing to reunite the tissue, restoring both the integrity and the aesthetic appearance of the earlobe.
Following surgery, the earlobe is restored to an almost normal condition, allowing for a new earring hole if desired. However, it is important not to pierce through the scar to avoid recurrence. Patients can typically resume normal daily activities immediately after the procedure, with complete wound healing occurring within approximately one month.

CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES

Coloboma auris, commonly referred to as a torn earlobe, is an aesthetic issue often caused by prolonged use of heavy earrings, trauma, or intentional stretching with gauges. This condition, which can range from mild deformity to complete lobe division, does not usually involve pain or functional impairment but can significantly affect the appearance of the earlobe.

The cost of earlobe repair surgery varies depending on the extent of the tear and the patient’s specific needs. For a precise and personalized estimate, it is recommended to schedule a consultation with Dr. Castaldo.
