She provides detailed insights into surgical options and potential outcomes, creating a supportive environment for informed decision-making.

Understanding Otoplasty Procedure

Ear surgery, or otoplasty, addresses multiple aesthetic concerns including:

  • Overly large ears (macrotia)
  • Protruding ears on one or both sides
  • Unsatisfactory results from previous ear surgeries

Procedure Details

Dr. Holland specializes in improving ear shape, position, and proportion. The procedure is commonly performed on teenagers to enhance appearance and boost self-esteem, though adults can also benefit from otoplasty.

What to Expect During Ear Surgery

Patients receive personalized care throughout the surgical process. The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia in the office, providing convenience and comfort. Surgery is conducted in a safe, controlled environment with comprehensive follow-up care.

Considerations Before Surgery

  • Expect maximum discomfort during the first few days post-surgery
  • Anticipate temporary swelling and bruising
  • Ears may be sensitive to pressure for several weeks
  • Specific sleep and recovery instructions will be provided

Post-Operative Care

Following otoplasty, patients receive detailed post-procedure instructions. These typically include pain management, proper wound care, and guidance on protecting the surgical site. Patients might be advised to wear a specialized headband to maintain the new ear shape and position.

Recovery Guidelines

  • Manage discomfort with prescribed medication
  • Apply directed dressings
  • Use cold compresses to minimize swelling
  • Avoid activities that could pressure the ears
