If torn or stretched earlobes from accidents, gauges, or heavy earrings affect your confidence, ear lobe repair offers a simple solution—and DPC ensures this quick procedure is safe, precise, and tailored to your needs.
Ear lobe repair corrects:
Tears: From trauma or heavy earrings.
Stretching: Due to gauges or prolonged heavy wear.
Keloids: Overgrown scar tissue.
Performed under local anesthesia, it’s a 30-minute outpatient procedure.
Key facts for patients:
Uses: Reconstruct split lobes, reduce keloids, close gauge holes.
Safety: Low-risk; minor swelling or bruising may occur.
Costs: Traditional clinics charge 500–1,500 USD; DPC reduces fees through bundled care.
Risks of DIY repair:
Infection, asymmetry, or poor scarring.
Direct Primary Care (DPC) replaces impersonal clinics with attentive, patient-first care.
Same-day assessments: Evaluate tears and plan repair techniques (e.g., wedge excision).
In-office procedure: No hospital visits; done under local anesthesia.
Pre-op prep: Cleanse area, avoid blood thinners, and discuss jewelry preferences post-repair.
All-inclusive pricing: Membership covers consultation, procedure, and follow-ups.
Reduced fees: DPC patients save 300–800 USD through self-pay rates.
Non-surgical options: Discuss dermal fillers for minor indentations if surgery isn’t needed.
24/7 access: Address sudden redness, pain, or discharge immediately.
Custom aftercare: Prescribe antibiotic ointments and advise on piercing timelines (6–8 weeks post-repair).
Preventive care: Recommend hypoallergenic jewelry to prevent future tears.

Q: How long is the procedure?
A: 15–30 minutes per lobe. DPC often does both ears in one visit.
Q: Will there be a scar?
A: Minimal. DPC uses fine sutures and advises scar creams like Mederma.
Q: Can I wear earrings after?
A: Yes, after 6–8 weeks. DPC recommends lightweight studs initially.
Q: Are keloid treatments covered?
A: Yes. Combine repair with steroid injections or cryotherapy if needed.
The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) emphasizes patient-centered care. DPC delivers by:
Slashing wait times: 90% of repairs done within 1 week vs. 3+ weeks traditionally.
Reducing complications: Meticulous technique cuts infection rates to <1%.
Cutting costs: Members save 400–1,000 USD through bundled care.
