Question 1

to get my ear lobe fat again, would any kind of injection in the ear lobe work?

Accepted Answer

Big juicy lobes: This is not a common request and certainly collagen would accomplish a temporary increase in the side of the earlobe but it may feel unnecessarily firm and would not be my first choice. If a patient made this request, i would recommend the use of hyaluronic acid fillers as the initial filler.

Question 2

how can i fix a torn ear lobe?

The earlobe is numbed up, the skin inside the split is removed and the ends are sutured back together.
