Earlobe Repair

Torn Earlobes

This is a common occurrence which usually occurs from a pierced earring which is pulled through or from stretching of the ear hole from wearing heavy earrings for many years. Dr. Simone repairs such tears, closing the defect and will repierce the ear at later time.

Earlobe Reductions

Enlarged and stretched earlobes often occur as a woman gets older.

It can also be caused from many years of wearing earrings. Such large and stretched lobes limit earring wear. A simple straightforward reduction under local anesthesia reconstructs the lobe to a normal, more youthful appearance.

 

Excision of Moles/Biopsies

Dr. Simone will assess any questionable mole or growth. Depending on his knowledge and suspicions, he will recommend observation, biopsy or removal, using local anesthesia.

When biopsied or removed, Dr. Simone send the tissue to one of the best pathology laboratories in the tristate area, which specializes in skin and subcutaneous tissue pathology.

Depending on that result, additional treatment may or may not be necessary.

 

Excision of Growths [Lipomas, Cysts, “Lumps” etc.]

Many patients have growths on, in or under their skin. Some are stable and others may signs of growth. Depending on symptoms and findings, Dr. Simone will recommend observation or removal. The tissue then will be sent to a pathology laboratory for microscopic interpretation and diagnosis.

 

Scar Repairs and Revisions

Dr. Simone has extensive experience in the treatment of scars. He uses highly specialized techniques to change scars so that they are aesthetically improved and less conspicuous on all areas of the body. Most procedures are done on an ambulatory basis under local anesthesia.

 

Correction of Inverted Nipples

This is a relatively common finding in females and can give asymmetry to the breasts, with or without clothing. It can occur in one or both breasts. Women are often self-conscious of this finding. It is due to nipple’s deep attachments which prevents its coming out, in the natural state and when erotically stimulated. Surgical correction is done simply under local anesthesia and done on an ambulatory basis. Scars are small and inconspicuously place inside the nipple.

 

Reconstruction After Mastectomy

Dr. Simone was one of the first surgeons to do breast reconstructions following mastectomy. He has used a variety of techniques to produce the best results with least amount of scarring and complications.

 

Reconstruction Following Moh’s Surgery

The defects which remain as a result of cancer removal will at times require reconstruction using the skill of a plastic surgeon. Dr. Simone has worked with many dermatologists whose patients have required complicated reconstructions and is fully versed in all the needs for successful reconstruction.

N.B. New York, NY
“ Dr. Simone made me feel very comfortable during my consultation. He was thorough and patient and explained my procedure very clearly. He and his staff really helped reduce my nervousness. My surgery went very well and I am extremely pleased with my results as is my husband. When I couldn’t come in for a post-operative visit during the week, he came in especially for me on the weekend. I would do it all over again. ”
