Otoplasty, also known as Ear Cosmetic Surgery, is a plastic surgery procedure designed to reshape, reposition, or correct deformities of the ears. It addresses concerns such as prominent ears, protruding ears, irregular cartilage, large earlobes, or congenital ear deformities. The procedure enhances facial harmony by improving ear shape and position.

Otoplasty can be performed on both children and adults. It is commonly performed on children between the ages of 4 and 14, once ear cartilage is stable. The surgery is safe, effective, and offers long-lasting aesthetic improvement with proper care.

Otoplasty works by reshaping or repositioning the ear cartilage to achieve a more natural and balanced appearance. Depending on the patient’s condition, the procedure may be performed using surgical or minimally invasive techniques.

Surgical Otoplasty involves making controlled incisions to reshape, reduce, or reposition the cartilage supporting the ear. In non-surgical or minimally invasive methods, special threads may be used to reshape and secure the cartilage through minimal incisions behind the ear. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia using specialized surgical instruments, ensuring precision and safety. Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring.

Q1: How long does Otoplasty last?

Q2: What is the best age to undergo Otoplasty?
A2: Otoplasty is commonly performed on children between 4 and 14 years old, once the ear cartilage is stable. Adults can also safely undergo the procedure at any age.

Q3: How painful is Otoplasty?
A3: The surgery is performed under local anesthesia, so no pain is felt during the procedure. Mild discomfort, swelling, or soreness may occur during the first few days of recovery.

Q4: Can I still have a piercing after Otoplasty?
A4: Yes, ear piercing is generally possible after the ears have fully healed. It is recommended to wait until the surgical site is completely recovered, usually a few weeks after surgery, before piercing.

Q5: Does Otoplasty leave a scar?
A5: Incisions are usually made behind or within the folds of the ear, so scarring is minimal and well-hidden.
