2, ear lobes: more due to violence caused by earrings and so on. It can be seen that the lower part of the earlobe is vertically divided into two parts. Surgery can be directly sutured, and care should be taken to prevent postoperative contracture. This method is simple and effective, but it needs to be re-pierced through the ear. In addition, a narrow strip of flap can be designed at the wound edge to form an ear hole, and the layer is sutured underneath. This method requires a higher technology.
