Otoplasty

Otoplasty is a facial surgical procedure designed to reshape or reposition the ears to create a more balanced and natural appearance. It is commonly performed to address prominent or asymmetrical ears and can help improve facial harmony for both children and adults.

Benefits

Otoplasty can reduce ear prominence, improve ear shape, and enhance overall facial balance. Many patients experience increased confidence and comfort with their appearance, particularly when wearing hairstyles that expose the ears. Results are long-lasting and typically subtle, creating natural-looking improvement rather than dramatic change.

Candidates

Ideal candidates for otoplasty are individuals who are bothered by the appearance of prominent or misshapen ears. Candidates should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations. Otoplasty can be performed on both adults and children once ear growth is complete.

Treatment Areas

Otoplasty focuses on the outer ears, addressing ear projection, shape, and symmetry. The procedure is customized to each patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Procedure


Otoplasty is typically performed through incisions placed behind the ear, where scars are well hidden. The cartilage is carefully reshaped or repositioned to achieve a more natural ear contour and position. The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on patient age, comfort, and treatment plan. Recovery is generally well tolerated, with gradual improvement as swelling subsides and final results become apparent.
