OTOPLASTY

Otoplasty (or ear surgery) seeks to correct ears that stick out, to bring them more into harmony with the face. This surgery will not damage your hearing and the time you will need to spend convalescing is very short.

This cosmetic surgery takes place under a local (or sometimes general) anaesthetic and involves making a small incision behind the ear to access and remodel the cartilage. The scars, which are located behind the ear, are hidden under a natural fold hiding them from sight. It is essential that you convalesce for at least seven to ten days afterwards.
