Earlobe Lift – Patient 271

Student nurse in her early 20’s with a complete cleft of the left earlobe, both  from sleeping with her earrings in and from a nickel allergy

She is shown before and again, 7 months after repair in the office.  In order to prevent recurrent splitting I have recommended that she avoid nickel such as stainless steel, and also get in the habit of removing her earrings while sleeping.
