Ear Correction Surgery
Ear correction surgery is designed to help people who consider their ears to be too prominent. In many cases, the shape and lie of the ears are inherited, and a trend is apparent across family members.
Ear correction surgery or ear reduction may be desired by people with prominent ears that lack a normal fold, or when one ear is more prominent than the other. As well as its aesthetic benefits, ear correction surgery can also boost self-confidence and so have positive effects throughout a patient's lifestyle.
What Does Corrective Ear Surgery Involve?
Ear correction surgery, or otoplasty, is a simple operation which adjusts the shape of the ear's cartilage to allow the ear to lie closer to the side of the head.
During ear correction surgery an incision is made behind the ear. The cartilage is then re-shaped, any excess is removed and then sutured into a more normal position.
An ear correction surgery procedure takes about 30 minutes. Following the operation, the small scars are hidden behind the ears and are not noticeable.
