Ear Surgery

Otoplasty

Otoplasty is the surgical procedure used to reshape and modify the appearance of the ear, especially protruding ears. Children are the most likely candidates for Otoplasty; however, the surgery can be performed at any age after the ears have reached full size, usually around five to six years of age. Successful otoplasty provides that the ears be in proportion to the size and shape of the face and head. Otoplasty will not alter hearing ability.


The incision for Otoplasty is behind the ear, in the natural fold where the ear is joined to the head. Portions of cartilage and skin may be removed, and shaped into a more desirable form. Permanent sutures are used to secure the new position. Soft dressings are applied to the ears and protect the ears for several days.


After the surgery, mild discomfort along with minor swelling and bruising of the ears may occur, and usually subsides within a few weeks. A thin white scar is all that remains in the natural crease behind the ear, and is barely visible.
