EAR SURGERY INDIANAPOLIS, IN | RAJIV SOOD MD FACS

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR RESHAPING PROCEDURE

Ear surgery, or otoplasty, is a specialized surgical procedure
designed to reshape the ears and adjust prominent ear positioning
closer to the head. This procedure addresses congenital ear prominence
and can restore damaged ear structures through various advanced
surgical techniques.

BEST CANDIDATES FOR EAR SURGERY

 	* Children aged 4-14 years old
	* Adults seeking ear shape correction
	* Individuals with protruding or disproportionate ears
	* Patients with realistic aesthetic expectations

PROCEDURE DETAILS

The ear surgery typically requires 2-3 hours and can be performed
under general or local anesthesia. The procedure involves precise
cartilage sculpting and repositioning to create a more balanced ear
appearance.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Dr. Sood employs two primary techniques for ear surgery:

 	* Cartilage sculpting and reshaping through a small incision behind
the ear
	* Skin removal with cartilage folding to create a natural ear contour

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can typically return to work or school within one week
following the procedure. Complete healing and final results may take
several weeks to months. Avoiding strenuous activities is crucial
during the initial recovery period.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While ear surgery is generally well-tolerated, patients should be
aware of minimal potential complications. Dr. Sood provides
comprehensive consultation to discuss individual risk factors and
expected outcomes.

SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

 	* Minimal risk of infection
	* Potential for rare blood clot formation

intervention.

structure.

discuss individual goals, surgical expectations, and potential
outcomes. The procedure addresses both aesthetic concerns and
potential psychological impacts of ear prominence.

OTOPLASTY: BEYOND COSMETIC ENHANCEMENT

For many patients, ear reshaping surgery represents more than a
cosmetic procedure. It can significantly improve self-confidence and
reduce potential social challenges associated with prominent ears.
