Ear Reshaping Surgery (Otoplasty) in Beverly Hills, AZ

Understanding Otoplasty: Ear Transformation Surgery

Otoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to adjust the size, shape, and positioning of ears. Sykes Plastic Surgery offers advanced ear surgery techniques to help patients achieve more balanced and aesthetically pleasing ear appearance.

Key Benefits of Otoplasty

• Decrease prominence of large ears
• Reposition ears to lay flatter against the head
• Repair torn or damaged earlobes
• Correct congenital ear abnormalities
• Provide permanent aesthetic improvements
• Boost patient self-confidence

Surgical Procedure Details

During otoplasty, Dr. Sykes makes a small incision behind the ear, carefully reshaping cartilage and positioning it using delicate stitches. The procedure typically takes one to three hours and can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation options available.

Candidacy for Ear Surgery

Ideal otoplasty candidates include individuals with fully developed ears who are in good physical health and dissatisfied with their ear appearance. Dr. Sykes conducts comprehensive consultations to determine individual surgical candidacy and develop personalized treatment plans.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect some initial bruising and swelling following the procedure. A surgical dressing will protect the ears during initial healing. Most patients can return to normal activities within one to two weeks, with final results becoming fully visible as post-surgical swelling subsides.
