- Maturity: The piercing channel is fully formed and stable.
Surgical Procedures and Recovery Time (Advanced Care)
While most ear piercings are minor, Dr. S. Sivakumar as a cosmetic surgeon offers advanced expertise. This is particularly relevant for:
- Correction of Torn Earlobes: Repairing stretched or torn piercings.
- Keloid Management: Addressing abnormal scar tissue formation.
