Otoplasty may alter the shape, size, or position of the ears. The degree of visible change depends on individual anatomy and surgical technique. Outcomes vary between individuals.
In some cases, structural correction may address functional concerns or asymmetry, where clinically appropriate.
At Aurez Aesthetics, patient safety and informed decision-making come first. During your consultation, we’ll review your health, discuss your goals, and set realistic expectations to determine whether otoplasty is appropriate for you.
• Ear proportions: Ears that appear larger or smaller relative to facial features.
• Ear positioning: Ears that project noticeably from the head.
• Congenital differences: Ear shape or structural variations present from birth.
• Previous surgery or injury: Correction after an earlier procedure or trauma.
• Earlobe concerns: Stretched, torn, or enlarged earlobes.
• Structural irregularities: Conditions such as a folded ear tip (lop ear).
Suitability is determined during consultation based on individual anatomy, medical history, and goals.
Your consultation focuses on assessing your concerns, anatomy, and medical history. The surgeon will discuss available surgical options, and potential risks to help determine whether otoplasty is suitable for you.
You’ll receive detailed pre-operative instructions, including information on medications, lifestyle factors, and what to expect before surgery. These steps are designed to support preparation and recovery.
Otoplasty is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the case. The surgeon adjusts the ear’s structure to to modify ear shape or position based on clinical assessment. Techniques are selected based on your anatomy and treatment plan.
Recovery is an important part of the process. Swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort are common during the early healing period. You’ll receive post-operative care guidance and follow-up appointments to monitor healing and recovery. Healing times and outcomes vary among individuals.
