Protruding ears can give you a complex, but the good news is that their unsightly shape and position can be corrected. Our specialists, who are leaders in their field, can use plastic surgery of the ear to help you.
HOW OTOPLASTY IS PERFORMED
INDICATIONS
Plastic surgery of the ear solves the problem of congenital deviations in the shape of the ear. The external ear is made up of cartilage and a covering of skin. If the external ear is shaped well, a surgeon can simply cut these attachments and bring the external ear closer to the skull.
EXTERNAL EAR ADJUSTMENT
Sometimes, however, the shape of the external ear also needs correcting. This is most often necessary in cases where the curve of the ear isn’t deep enough or where the ear shape is irregular, sometimes even cone shaped. In these cases, a surgeon will adjust and shape the cartilage structure of the ear.
EAR ASYMMETRY
The external ears usually do not develop completely symmetrically, so slight asymmetries in shape and size are common. Ear surgery is therefore performed on one or both ears and to varying extents depending on the individual patient.
COURSE OF THE OPERATION
Otoplasty is usually performed under local anaesthesia. The surgical incision is made on the back of the external ears. The skin is then separated from the cartilage and the cartilage attachments are released. Finally, the skin is sutured and a dressing with ointment is placed on the external ear.

How to alleviate pain after ear surgery?
To alleviate pain, you can take pain-relieving medications that you will be provided with after the surgery. Sleep with your head elevated, as keeping the head in an elevated position can help reduce discomfort in the ears.
