'''Earlobe removal''' is just that &mdash; a form of [[Ear Shaping]] involving the partial or total removal of the earlobe. Some people do this to quickly "correct" a stretched ear that they no longer want, others do it to cosmetically change the shape of the ear (sometimes to accentuate [[Ear Pointing]]), and any number of other reasons.

Earlobe removal is often done as a [[Clamp and Cut]] procedure, or just cut off and [[Suture]]d and/or [[Cautery|cauterized]].
