Otoplasty
Many people are embarrassed about misshaped ears drawing unwanted attention. The most common ear deformity is the absence of a prominent fold in the cartilage, the ear protrudes away from the side of the head too far. Otoplasty procedures aim at re-creating this fold using a combination of permanent sutures and removal of excess skin.
What To Expect
You’ll feel some discomfort and itching. Avoid sleeping on your side. Do not to rub or place excessive force on the incisions. After otoplasty, your ears will be swollen. To prevent pulling your ears forward when rolling over in bed you’ll wear a loose headband that covers your ears at night for two to six weeks.
