UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR CORRECTION SURGERY

Misshapen or protruding ears can cause significant emotional distress.
Otoplasty offers a surgical solution to correct ear defects and
improve overall ear appearance. Dr. Carey Nease, a triple
board-certified surgeon with 15 years of experience, provides
comprehensive ear reshaping services for patients in Jasper and
surrounding communities.

WHAT IS OTOPLASTY?

Otoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to correct
deformities and defects of the outer ear (pinna). This procedure can
address issues resulting from congenital conditions, trauma, or
aesthetic concerns. The surgery aims to reconstruct, reshape, or
reposition ears to achieve a more balanced and natural appearance.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE AND BENEFITS

Otoplasty offers numerous advantages for patients seeking ear
correction:

 	* Improved ear proportion and symmetry
	* Enhanced facial balance
	* Increased self-confidence
	* Natural-looking surgical results
	* Potential for surgery as early as four years of age

PROCEDURE COST AND CONSIDERATIONS

The average cost of otoplasty at Nease Cosmetic Surgery is
approximately $6,000. Additional ear-related procedures like ear lobe
repair are available for around $500 per side. Insurance coverage
typically applies only to functional ear surgeries, so patients should
consult their insurance provider for specific details.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Otoplasty recovery varies depending on the specific procedure.
Patients can generally expect:

 	* Bandage removal within a few days post-surgery
	* Wearing a protective headband at night for 2-6 weeks
	* Significant swelling reduction within six months
	* Final ear shape stabilization after approximately one year

CANDIDACY FOR OTOPLASTY

Ideal candidates for otoplasty include individuals experiencing
self-consciousness about ear appearance, those with congenital ear
deformities, or parents seeking correction for children experiencing
emotional distress due to ear shape or prominence.
