WHAT IS EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY)?

Ear surgery, medically known as otoplasty, is a specialized procedure
designed to enhance and improve the shape, proportion, or position of
the ear. This surgical technique addresses structural defects present
at birth or corrects misshapen or damaged ears resulting from injury.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Performed correctly, ear surgery can bring balance and proportion to
the ears and face. When minor deformities are corrected, patients
often experience significant improvements in appearance and
self-esteem.

CANDIDATE CRITERIA FOR EAR SURGERY

Dr. Curves evaluates potential ear surgery candidates based on several
key factors:

 	* Children over 5 years of age with stable ear cartilage
	* Individuals able to communicate their surgical goals
	* Teens and adults in good overall health
	* Non-smokers with realistic surgical expectations

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

During the procedure, Dr. Jimerson makes an incision behind the ears
in the natural fold near the skull attachment. The underlying
cartilage is carefully shaped and repositioned using precisely placed
permanent sutures.

RECOVERY PROCESS

Recovery varies by patient age and individual healing capabilities:

 	* Children typically return to school within one week
	* Adults can usually return to work within a day
	* A protective bandage is worn initially
	* A headband is recommended during sleep for four weeks

POTENTIAL RISKS

As with any surgical procedure, ear surgery involves potential risks
such as:

 	* Anesthesia complications
	* Infection
	* Scarring
	* Asymmetry
	* Changes in skin sensation
