Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)
A small change, carried with quiet confidence.
Overview
Otoplasty reshapes or repositions prominent ears, setting them closer to the head through incisions hidden behind the ear. It is one of the most satisfying, low-downtime procedures in aesthetic surgery — for adults and, in some practices, children.
The Ideal Candidate
- Prominent or asymmetric ears
- Good general health; cartilage assessed at consultation
- Adults, or children once ear cartilage is sufficiently developed
- Seeking natural positioning, not "pinned" ears

Week 2
Return to work or school; swelling recedes.
Weeks 3–6
Contact sports paused; the headband continues at night.
Month 3+
