What is otoplasty – correction of protruding ears?
The correction of protruding ears, otherwise known as otoplasty, is nothing more than a surgical procedure aimed at restoring the natural and correct appearance of the ears. It allows us to correct protruding ears, oversized auricles and improve the overall appearance of the earlobes.
The otoplasty procedure is often performed for aesthetic reasons, but it should be remembered that it is also an option to reconstruct ears damaged by trauma or accidents.
This short procedure is able to deal with many years of stigma, which is why patients so willingly decide to have it done.
What are the indications for treatment?
- congenital ear defects (Darwin’s tubercle, microtia),
- protruding ears,
- retraction of the auricle,
- ear injuries,
- partial or complete underdevelopment of the auricle.
The procedure usually takes about 60 minutes and is performed under local anaesthetic.
It should be emphasised that the effects achieved are permanent and visible immediately after the treatment,
