What is Cosmetic Ear Surgery?

Otoplasty (cosmetic ear surgery) otherwise known as ear pinning back surgery, is a procedure done to change how the ear looks, where it is, or the size of the ears.
Patients can choose to have an otoplasty procedure if they have protruding ears. They may also contemplate plastic ear surgery if they have ears that are misshapen due to an injury or birth defect.
To have the otoplasty surgery patients don’t need to be 18 or older, they can be younger. However, they can have the surgery after the ears have reached their full size.

Types of Ear Correction Surgeries

Because every patient has a different type of ear, there are different types of ear correction surgery. These are:

• Ear augmentation: This type is done if the pinna is undeveloped or doesn’t exist, known as microtia.
• Otopexy: This type is done to flatten the protruding ears.
• Ear reduction: This is done to reduce the pinna. If the ears are too big, this is known as macrotia.
