Ear correction

Otoplasty is one of the most common operations in cosmetic surgery, which involves reducing the angle between the earlobe and the head and correcting the shape of the earlobe. It also involves the correction of the deformity of the ear shell caused by an injury or congenital anomaly. Correction can be performed after the definitively formed shape of the earlobe. For psychological reasons, corrections are also made in preschool age. Usually, otoplasty involves the correction of both ear shells, even if the problem is more noticeable on the one hand, in order to achieve symmetry.

EAR CORRECTION PROCEDURE

The procedure consists of removing excess skin behind the ear and reshaping the cartilage of the earlobe to achieve a normal contour and angle between the earlobe and the head. The operation is performed under local anesthesia and lasts about 2 hours.

RECOVERY

The bandage is removed after 5-7 days and the sutures after two weeks.

If you are not happy with your ears, consider corrective otoplasty, to improve your self-confidence.
