Cosmetic repair of elongated or lacerated earlobe tracts is a commonly encountered dermatologic procedure. For esthetic purposes, patients may choose to repierce the repaired lobe over the original site. Subsequent piercing within a scarred area potentially increases the risk of recurrent tract elongation secondary to the reduced tensile strength of the scar.
To strengthen a damaged earlobe by incorporating a nonabsorbable, dermal polypropylene suture during earlobe
The technique is described within the text.
A deep polypropylene suture placed within a repaired earlobe tract provides a permanent barrier above which repiercing can be performed.
Permanent reinforcement of the repaired earlobe serves to reduce the possibility of recurrent elongation of the earlobe tract. The technique is relevant when repeat piercing is desired over the original site.
对拉长或撕裂的耳垂孔道进行美容修复是一种常见的皮肤科手术。出于美观目的，患者可能会选择在修复后的耳垂原部位重新穿孔。在瘢痕区域内进行后续穿孔可能会因瘢痕抗张强度降低而增加耳垂孔道复发性拉长的风险。
在耳垂修复过程中采用不可吸收的真皮聚丙烯缝线来加固受损耳垂。
文中描述了该技术。
在修复后的耳垂孔道内放置一条深部聚丙烯缝线可提供一个永久性屏障，在此屏障上方可进行重新穿孔。
对修复后的耳垂进行永久性加固有助于降低耳垂孔道复发性拉长的可能性。当希望在原部位重复穿孔时，该技术具有重要意义。
