The Ear Tags Removal Procedures:
At Glamorous Clinic Islamabad our expert surgeons use the following three surgical procedures to ensure the effective removal of ear tags. Our surgeons will first examine your ear tags carefully and then will recommend the most suitable removal treatment method for them:
Surgical Excision of Ear Tags:
For the surgical removal, the surgeon will first numb the ear tag region and then he will use a scalpel or scissors to make cuts several millimeters below the skin’s surface so there is no visible scarring. The removal of ear tags from surgical excisions provides permanent results and they usually do not appear back after this procedure.
Electrocautery:
In this method, the surgeon uses an electric current to burn off the preauricular pits.
Cryotherapy:
The cryotherapy method helps freeze the tag. It uses liquid nitrogen to freeze it and destroy the tissues of the ear tags.
Non-surgical Method:
One of the traditional methods of removing these preauricular tags is the non-invasive technique of applying a string around them to stop their blood flow. However, this method can take up to several days, or months to provide effective results. The doctor will wrap a string around your ear tag and will staple it, the wrapping of the string will prevent the blood flow which will lead to the slow death of the ear tag.
Post-Ear Tag Removal Care:
Patients will have to follow the below aftercare guidelines:
- Do not apply dirty hands on the treatment region and try to keep the area clean.
- Apply the recommended ointment on time to promote healing.
- Do not scratch or pick the treatment site.
