  • Corrects prominent or asymmetrical ears for natural balance
  • Customizable techniques to suit individual needs
  • Long-lasting, permanent results with minimal downtime
  • Suitable for adults and children seeking ear reshaping
Otoplasty, also known as ear surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape, reposition, or resize the ears. It corrects protruding or asymmetrical ears, restoring a natural and proportionate appearance. Ear otoplasty is commonly performed for individuals seeking to enhance facial balance or correct congenital ear deformities.

How It Works:

  • A consultation determines the best technique based on ear structure.
  • The procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia.
  • An incision is made behind the ear to access cartilage.
  • Excess cartilage is reshaped or removed, and the ear is repositioned closer to the head.
  • Sutures secure the new ear position for long-lasting results.
For individuals looking for ear pinning without surgery, non-surgical alternatives like ear molding techniques may be recommended.
  • Corrects Prominent Ears: Brings ears closer to the head for a more natural look.
  • Enhances Facial Symmetry: Creates balanced and proportionate facial features.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Permanent correction with minimal maintenance.
  • Minimal Scarring: Incisions are discreetly placed behind the ear.
  • Boosts Confidence: Improves self-esteem, especially for children and teenagers.
  • Short Recovery Time: Most patients resume daily activities within a week.
Otoplasty is ideal for individuals who:
  • Have prominent ears that stick out too far from the head.
  • Experience self-consciousness due to ear shape or size.
  • Are in good overall health with no severe medical conditions.
  • Have realistic expectations about the results.
Children as young as five years old can undergo otoplasty, as their ear cartilage is still flexible and easier to reshape.

Before Surgery

  • A consultation assesses ear structure and desired outcome.
  • Pre-surgical instructions may include avoiding certain medications.
  • Local or general anesthesia is administered for comfort.

During Surgery

  • An incision is made behind the ear to access the cartilage.
  • Cartilage is reshaped, repositioned, or partially removed.
  • The ear is secured with sutures to maintain the new shape.
  • The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours.

After Surgery

  • A bandage is applied to protect the ears and support healing.
  • Swelling and mild discomfort are normal but temporary.
  • Results become noticeable once the bandage is removed in about a week.

Aftercare & Recovery

  • Keep the bandage on as instructed to protect the surgical site.
  • Avoid sleeping on the side to prevent pressure on the ears.
  • Take prescribed medications to manage swelling and discomfort.
  • Avoid strenuous activities and contact sports for a few weeks.
  • Attend follow-up appointments to monitor healing progress.
