Introduction

• Otoplasty also known as cosmetic ear surgery
  is a procedure to change the shape, position or
  size of the ears.
• You might choose to have Otoplasty if you're
  bothered by how far your ears stick out from your
  head. You might also consider Otoplasty if your
  ear or ears are misshapen due to an injury or
  birth defect.
• Otoplasty can be done at any age after the ears
  have reached their full size usually after age
  5 through adulthood.

Why its 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 won't change the location of your ears
  or alter your ability to hear.

Procedure

• The goal of an otoplasty procedure is to set
  back the shape of the ear in such a way that its
  contours appear natural and soft. For otoplasty,
  incisions are made behind the ears.
• In performing otoplasty, the surgeon creates a
  small cut at the back of the ear exposing the
  cartilage. The excess skin will then be removed
  and the cartilage is reshaped. Non-removable
  stitches may be used to help maintain the new
  shape.
