UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR CORRECTION SURGERY

cosmetic or functional concerns about their ear appearance through
this precise surgical technique.

OTOPLASTY PROCEDURE DETAILS IN VIRGINIA

The surgical procedure typically takes between one to three hours,
performed under local or general anesthesia. Surgeons carefully
reshape ear cartilage to achieve a balanced, natural appearance while
maintaining proper ear function.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

experiencing minimal discomfort. A protective headband is worn for
several weeks to support healing and maintain surgical results. Most
patients can return to normal activities within four to six weeks.

expectations about surgical outcomes. During the consultation, Dr.
Sailon will evaluate individual ear anatomy, discuss surgical goals,
and determine the most appropriate approach for ear correction.
