Who is a good candidate for Otoplasty?

Otoplasty is typically used for ears that

• protrude from the head
• are larger or smaller than normal
• have an abnormal shape due to injury, trauma, or a structural issue from birth

• What should I expect after an otoplasty?

Otoplasty is usually performed on an outpatient basis for both adults and children. For children, otoplasty is performed under general anesthesia. Adults may choose between local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Improvement in the appearance of the ears is essentially immediate, however, healing must obviously still take place, and a soft gauze head-wrap is applied at the end of the case to protect the ears. Pain after otoplasty is typically minimal, although the patient will be provided with pain medication if desired. Bruising is also usually minimal and should fade completely, or nearly so, by two weeks post-op. Although heavy lifting and strenuous activity should be avoided for a week, patients can resume their normal activities as soon after surgery as they feel able, and begin enjoying their new appearance.

What are the common side effects during the recovery period?

• ears that feel sore, tender, or itchy
• redness
• swelling
• bruising
• numbness or tingling
