The impact of protruding ears on the psychological well-being of both children and adults has long been noted by doctors. Adults can be embarrassed and camouflage their ears with their hair, and a child's self-imaging may be severely affected. Ear reshaping (Otoplasty) is one of the oldest Cosmetic Surgery procedures - with a history that dates back to the late 19th century. It is a straightforward procedure, which can give you a new confidence in your appearance.
Ear reshaping surgery is usually performed to set prominent ears back closer to the head or to reduce the size of large ears. The ear reshaping procedure involves removing skin and reshaping the cartilage from behind the ears. The ears are then stitched into the new position with the incision marks cleverly concealed in the natural crease behind the ear. The ear reshaping surgery normally takes 2-3 hours to complete.
You will need to wear bandages around your ears for about a week, at which time your stitches will be removed. Once removal of the bandages, you will be able to see the results immediately.
