Ear Reshaping Surgery (Otoplasty) South Carolina | Palmetto Facial Plastics Helen A. Moses, MD

Understanding Otoplasty: Ear Reshaping for Enhanced Aesthetics

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the ear, improving its position, shape, and proportion for a more aesthetic and natural appearance. Patients seeking ear surgery can address concerns about prominent or disproportionate ears through this specialized cosmetic intervention.

About Cosmetic Ear Surgery

Cosmetic ear surgery focuses exclusively on the outer ear's exterior, repositioning ears to create a more symmetric and proportional look. The procedure targets ears that appear too large for the head or are angled toward the face, creating a more balanced facial profile.

Key Benefits of Otoplasty

• Procedure duration: One to three hours
• Long-term, natural-looking results
• Safe surgical approach with minimal risks
• Suitable for both children and adults
• Potential boost in self-confidence

Comprehensive Otoplasty Procedure Overview

Dr. Moses performs otoplasty as an outpatient procedure, utilizing local or general anesthesia based on individual patient needs. The surgical technique involves making a small incision in the ear's inner crease or back, followed by precise reshaping of ear tissue and cartilage.

Surgical Approach and Recovery

Patients can expect minimal discomfort during recovery, with most individuals returning to work or school within two weeks. Dr. Moses provides personalized post-operative instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
