Understanding Otoplasty: Ear Transformation in Melbourne

Ear surgery, or otoplasty, is a specialized procedure recommended for teenagers and adults seeking to improve their ear appearance. Castellon Plastic Surgery Center, led by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Mauricio J. Castellon, offers comprehensive ear reshaping solutions for patients in Melbourne, Brevard County, and Central Florida.

What is Otoplasty?

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to modify ear characteristics, including:

  • Correcting ear proportions relative to the face and head
  • Adjusting ear projection from the skull
  • Addressing congenital or injury-related ear deformities

Ideal Candidates for Ear Surgery

Otoplasty can benefit patients of various ages, with key considerations including:

  • Fully developed ear structure
  • Desire to improve ear appearance
  • Psychological impact of ear shape or position

Procedure Details and Expectations

Dr. Castellon performs otoplasty with meticulous attention to patient comfort and surgical precision. The procedure typically takes one to two hours and involves repositioning or reshaping ear cartilage to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial results immediately after bandage removal, with full healing occurring over several weeks to months. Dr. Castellon provides comprehensive post-operative guidance to ensure optimal recovery and minimized complications.

Earlobe Repair Considerations

In addition to traditional otoplasty, Dr. Castellon offers earlobe repair for patients with stretched or damaged earlobes. This procedure can restore ear aesthetics and functionality, providing a solution for those with earlobe concerns.

Procedure Pricing and Consultation

As otoplasty is typically considered an elective procedure, detailed pricing will be discussed during a personalized consultation. Castellon Plastic Surgery Center offers flexible payment options to accommodate patient needs.

Dr. Castellon and staff could not be more accommodating. The results are wonderful and he’s very cognizant of the patient’s wishes and tries to meet the patient’s needs and wants as much as possible. I have referred many patients to Dr. Castellon because as far as I’m concerned he’s the only one to go to. Stellar!!!

Please don't go to this place for any procedures! Please read the reviews before you pay for a consultation! I make an appointment and paid $100 consultation fee before I read the Google reviews. The next day , I called the office to cancel and asked for refund - it is 5 day before the consultation. I can't believe that they refused to refund!!!! The office employees are rude and unreasonable. I will give them no stars.

First, I’d like to say, Dr. Castellon is a kind person and this review is not about him personally. I went to him for a breast reduction and tummy tuck, because he takes insurance for the breast reduction. My first visit was in the fall of 2021, for a consultation. I was shown a dramatization of the tummy tuck procedure and Dr. C told me he could do the breast reduction and lift without the typical “anchor” scar which usually takes longer to heal. I agreed to the procedures being done at the same time. We ended up not being able to schedule until January 2022, which unfortunately started my insurance over for the year. It wasn’t long before I realized they had not submitted my surgery to my insurance for pre authorization. Also they had the incorrect amount owed by me. To his credit, Dr. C told me he would do my breast reduction for whatever I was quoted as the amount owed by my insurance. After an extremely stressful week, we finally got approval late morning on the day of my surgery. Recovery was brutal as expected, but I was excited to see the results. When the bandages and wraps were removed I was excited to see a flat belly and reduced breast size! However, I immediately noticed flaps of skin hanging over my incision I came to find out are called “dog ears” and can happen after a tummy tuck. I also noticed that the scarring was puckered on my right breast. I was told repeatedly at every post op visit that these anomalies will resolve themselves with time. And to continue wearing my compression garments. Well, I just had my 2.5 year post op visit, and not only are the dog ears and puckered scar still present, the dog ears appear worse. Well, now, Dr. C wants an additional $5000 to fix his plastic surgery job. He also offered an in office procedure for $2000, telling me he’s just charging what it would cost him with no profit on top, explaining to me the cost of the additional surgery or treatment. My opinion is, his expenses aren’t my concern. He should fix what’s not correct.

Had a breast implant removal and lift December of 2023. After cash $14,000 i expect nothing less than perfect. I have hypergranulation around the nipple area and large divets under the breast. After 1.5 years the staff keeps telling me "oh, it will go away and get better. All they want to do is take pictures. Just keep using the '$100' cream ". It has not gotten better and nobody has even reached out to me to resolve the problem. I will be seeking someone else for a revision in the near future.
