Snipping most of Carol's post which I do not disagree with.


Carol:
And "Renervate " the spell Harry used to try to restore Dumbledore. And don't get me started on the Disillusionment Charm that actually "illusions"! Nevertheless, we see in DH that Mrs. Weasley can't restore the ear that George lost to Sectumsempra (I'll bet that Snape could have), and saving Draco requires an elaborate, chanted countercurse.

Cyril:
The one difference that I see in this case with George is that he probably was not carrying the ear with him. In the heat of battle it would have fallen to the ground and probably lost. So the question is not about healing the 'cut' but rather growing a new ear in its place. Maybe even Snape would not have been able to fix it, unless he got the original ear back and then just healed the cut.

JMO,
Cyril.
