Ear Reshaping Surgery

Ear reshaping surgery, also known as otoplasty, is a highly effective and safe procedure designed to improve the appearance of ears that may be protruding, asymmetrical, or misshapen. Whether you're looking to make subtle adjustments or correct more noticeable issues, otoplasty can create a more balanced and natural look for your ears.

Why Choose Otoplasty?

• Correct Protruding Ears: Otoplasty can correct ears that stick out too far from the head, helping to achieve a more proportional and natural ear shape.

• Improve Symmetry: If you have uneven or asymmetrical ears, otoplasty can help balance their appearance, giving you a more harmonious facial profile.

• Boost Confidence: Many people feel self-conscious about their ears, especially if they’ve been the subject of teasing. Otoplasty can improve the way you feel about your appearance and enhance self-esteem.

How Does Otoplasty Work?

During otoplasty, the surgeon will carefully reshape the cartilage of the ear to achieve the desired appearance. The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the surgery and the patient’s comfort level.

The surgeon may make small incisions behind the ear to access the cartilage and then either fold, trim, or reshape it to create a more natural contour. The surgery typically takes 1-2 hours to perform, and recovery time is relatively quick.

Benefits of Otoplasty:

• Improved Ear Appearance: Achieve ears that are in better proportion with your head and facial features, creating a more balanced look.

• Permanent Results: Otoplasty provides lasting results, with the changes to your ears remaining in place once they’ve healed.

• Minimal Downtime: Most patients experience only mild discomfort and swelling after the procedure and can return to normal activities within a week.

What to Expect After Surgery:

After otoplasty, your ears will be wrapped in a bandage to support the healing process. Some swelling and discomfort are common in the first few days, but these typically subside quickly. The bandages are usually removed after a few days, and any stitches will be taken out in the first week. Patients can generally return to work or school within 1 week and resume full physical activities in a few weeks.
