Torn earlobes happen to men and women with large heavy jewelry but also to those who wear smaller, lighter earrings. There are three ways to repair a torn earlobe.  A “jelly roll” flap, a layered closure, or “Z-plasty” flap are all effective surgical techniques used to repair the earlobes.  The cause of your injury and the damage done to the tissue will determine which procedure is right for you. In many cases, a small hole can be left to allow the patient to wear earrings after the procedure.

The best way to avoid earlobe injuries is to limit the use of heavy jewelry and remember to take out your jewelry when playing sports or dealing with small children that like to tug and pull on earrings.
