Why It's Done
You might consider otoplasty if:
- Your ear or ears stick out too far from your head
- Your ears are large in proportion to your head
- You’re dissatisfied with a previous ear surgery
Otoplasty is typically done on both ears to optimize symmetry. Otoplasty can be done at any age after the ears have reached their full size usually after age 5. Otoplasty won’t change the location of your ears or alter your ability to hear. Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, can improve the shape, position, or proportion of the ear. A defect in the ear structure that is present at birth or that becomes apparent with development can be corrected by otoplasty. This procedure can also treat misshapen ears caused by injury.
Otoplasty creates a more natural shape while bringing balance and proportion to the ears and face. Correction of even minor deformities can have profound benefits to appearance and self-esteem. If protruding or disfigured ears bother you or your child, you may consider plastic surgery.
What can ear surgery treat?
- Overly large ears – a condition called macrotia
- Protruding ears occurring on one or both sides in varying degrees – not associated with hearing loss
- Adult dissatisfaction with previous ear surgery
FAQ's
How Should I Prepare for Ear Surgery?
Preparing for surgery can help prevent complications from arising and assist you in experiencing a smooth recovery. Before your procedure, you will be given a list of instructions to follow that may include:
- Undergoing a medical evaluation and lab tests
- Taking medications after the procedure
- Avoiding certain vitamins, supplements, and medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen, as they can cause increased bleeding
- Avoiding cigarettes and tobacco products for at least two weeks before and after surgery
- What to wear on the day of surgery
How Young Can an Otoplasty Patient Be?
In severe cases, otoplasty can be performed on children as young as four years old. Many parents choose to wait until the child is at least seven so they can be an active participant in their care. In addition, children at this stage are better able to handle and recover from surgery. If your child becomes distressed at the mention of surgery, it may be best to wait until they are older and more mature.
When Can I Expect to See Results?
Most patients will see the results immediately and are usually ecstatic. The final appearance takes several weeks because of the swelling. Dr. Yatindra Dewangan will explain the otoplasty recovery process at length during your pre-surgical appointments.
