EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY) MARIETTA, GA | AISHA MCKNIGHT BARON

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR RESHAPING SURGERY

Otoplasty, commonly known as ear surgery, is a specialized cosmetic
procedure designed to improve the ears' appearance and overall facial
profile. Board-certified cosmetic surgeon Dr. Aisha Mcknight Baron
performs this transformative procedure to correct misshapen and
disproportionately large ears.

EAR SURGERY CANDIDACY

Ideal candidates for otoplasty typically include:

 	* Patients at least 5 years of age
	* Individuals with ears that protrude from the head
	* Patients with ears misshapen from trauma or congenital defects
	* Those with ears disproportionate to their head size

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The otoplasty procedure involves making small incisions behind the ear
to access and reshape the cartilage. Dr. Baron carefully removes and
restructures cartilage to achieve the desired ear size and position.
The technique, often referred to as "ear pinning," aims to create
natural-looking ears that complement the patient's facial features.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Average Cost: $13,000 - $15,000
	* Recovery Time: 2 - 4 weeks
	* Procedure Duration: 2 - 3 hours
	* Post-Operative Follow-up: 1 week
	* Procedure Location: Out-Patient

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising following the
procedure, which typically subsides within the first couple of weeks.
An elastic headband is often recommended to maintain the new ear
position during initial healing. Patients are advised to avoid
strenuous activities for approximately 1-2 months post-surgery.

PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS

Beyond physical transformation, otoplasty can significantly improve
self-confidence, particularly for children who may experience teasing
or self-consciousness about their ear appearance. Dr. Baron is
committed to helping patients feel comfortable and confident in their
own skin.

UNDERSTANDING EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY)

Otoplasty is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure designed to improve
the appearance and positioning of ears. Performed by board-certified
cosmetic surgeons, this surgical technique addresses ear
irregularities that can impact an individual's self-confidence and
facial profile.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Otoplasty involves reshaping ear cartilage through precise surgical
techniques. The procedure can modify ear size, shape, and position,
creating a more balanced and harmonious facial appearance. Dr. Aisha
Baron specializes in ear surgery techniques that provide
natural-looking results.

BEST CANDIDATES FOR EAR SURGERY

 	* Children and adults with protruding ears
	* Patients with ears misshapen from trauma or congenital conditions
	* Individuals with disproportionately large ears compared to head
size
	* Patients seeking improved facial symmetry

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The otoplasty procedure involves making small incisions behind the ear
to access and reshape the cartilage. Surgeons carefully remove excess
cartilage, reposition the ears closer to the head, and create a more
balanced appearance. The "ear-pinning" technique is particularly
effective for ears that protrude significantly.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients can expect temporary swelling and bruising following the
procedure. An elastic headband is typically worn during initial
recovery to maintain the new ear position. Most patients resume normal
activities within 1-2 months, with children requiring careful
monitoring during the healing process.

PROCEDURE DETAILS

 	* Average Cost: $13,000 - $15,000

BENEFITS OF EAR SURGERY

Otoplasty offers significant psychological benefits, particularly for
children and teenagers who may experience social challenges due to ear
appearance. By creating more proportionate and aesthetically pleasing
ears, the procedure can enhance self-esteem and reduce unwanted social
attention.
