Otoplasty (Ear Reshaping Surgery)
Otoplasty, also known as ear reshaping surgery, is a refined surgical procedure designed to correct the size, shape, or position of the ears. Most commonly, it is performed to pin back prominent ears or correct ear deformities—creating a more balanced and symmetrical facial appearance.
KEY BENEFITS OF Otoplasty (Ear Reshaping Surgery)
Otoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance and symmetry of the ears, creating a more balanced facial profile. It corrects prominent or protruding ears by repositioning them closer to the head, while also addressing asymmetry, overly large or misshapen ears, and congenital deformities. The procedure is equally effective for post-trauma correction, helping restore a natural ear shape after injury. By refining ear proportions and positioning, otoplasty enhances both facial harmony and patient confidence.
Ear Pinning (Traditional Otoplasty)
Repositions protruding ears closer to the head for a more natural, balanced contour.
Ear Reduction (Macrotia Surgery)

FAQ's
How long does otoplasty surgery take?
The procedure usually takes about 1.5 to 2 hours and is most often performed under local anesthesia, sometimes with light sedation for added comfort.
What is the recovery process like?
Most patients return to normal activities within 5–7 days. A protective headband may be worn at night for 2–3 weeks to support healing and protect the ears while sleeping.
When will I see results, and how long will they last?
Improvements are visible once swelling subsides, with the refined ear shape and positioning settling over 4–6 weeks. Results are permanent and rarely require revision.
Who makes a good candidate for otoplasty?
Candidates include children or adults bothered by prominent, oversized, or asymmetrical ears. Patients should be in good health, have completed ear development (typically after age 5–6), and have realistic expectations for natural, balanced results. Otoplasty can also correct deformities from trauma or congenital conditions.
What are the risks and potential complications?
Otoplasty is safe and low-risk in experienced hands. Temporary swelling, bruising, numbness, or discomfort are common. Rare complications include scar visibility (usually hidden behind the ears), suture issues, or infection. Minor asymmetry may occur but can often be corrected.
