What is Otoplasty?

Otoplasty, also known as ear surgery, is a cosmetic and reconstructive procedure designed to improve the shape, size, or position of the ears. This surgery is often chosen to correct congenital ear deformities, ear asymmetry, or aesthetic concerns related to prominent or misshapen ears.

Some individuals opt for otoplasty to reduce the appearance of protruding ears, while others undergo the procedure due to injuries or congenital defects that affect the natural ear shape. Otoplasty can be performed on both children and adults, offering a lifelong improvement in ear symmetry and facial harmony.

This safe and effective procedure can significantly enhance a person’s self-confidence by creating a more proportionate and balanced appearance.

The Otoplasty Procedure

Otoplasty follows a step-by-step process to ensure optimal ear reshaping and natural results.

Anesthesia

Local anesthesia is commonly used for adults. General anesthesia may be administered for children to ensure comfort during the procedure.

Incisions

Incisions are made behind the ears or within natural ear folds to keep scarring minimal and hidden.

Cartilage Shaping

Ear cartilage is reshaped, repositioned, or removed depending on the desired results. Special internal stitches are used to hold the new ear position securely.

Closing Incisions

The incisions are carefully closed with fine sutures, ensuring minimal scarring. A protective bandage or dressing is applied to help support the new ear shape during healing.

Benefits of Otoplasty

These are the top Otoplasty benefits:

More Natural Appearance

Creates better ear symmetry and proportion.

Enhanced Facial Balance

Ears appear harmonious with facial features.

Minimal Scarring

Incisions are hidden behind the ears, making scars nearly invisible.

Before & After Results

Types of Otoplasty

There are various otoplasty techniques, each designed to address specific concerns and produce natural, long-lasting results.

Traditional Otoplasty

✔ Ideal for correcting prominent ears that stick out too far from the head. ✔ Incisions are made behind the ears, allowing the surgeon to reshape and pin back the cartilage. ✔ Creates a more natural and symmetrical ear contour.

Ptosis Repair (Ear Lifting)

✔ Used to correct sagging or droopy ears. ✔ Involves lifting and reshaping the cartilage to improve ear position. ✔ Particularly beneficial for individuals with ear deformities due to aging or trauma.

Asymmetric Otoplasty

✔ A specialized technique for correcting uneven or asymmetrical ears. ✔ Ensures both ears are proportionate and balanced with the rest of the face. ✔ Helps individuals achieve better symmetry without overcorrection.
