EAR RESHAPING SURGERY (OTOPLASTY) HUNTERSVILLE, NY | ERIK J. MILES, MD

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: CORRECTING PROMINENT EARS

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to address overly prominent
ears that can cause lifelong embarrassment. This specialized technique
surgically corrects ear deformities, creating a more balanced and
aesthetically pleasing ear appearance.

COMMON EAR IRREGULARITIES TREATED

Two primary ear irregularities are typically addressed during
otoplasty:

 	* Conchal Bowl Deformity: When ear cartilage fails to fully form,
causing ears to protrude
	* Antihelical Fold Absence: Resulting in ears that lack natural
contours and appear "elfin"

SURGICAL APPROACH

The otoplasty procedure involves strategically placed incisions behind
the ear to minimize visible scarring. Surgical techniques may include:

 	* Reducing excess cartilage
	* Reshaping ear contours
	* Repositioning ears closer to the head

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR EAR RESHAPING

Otoplasty is suitable for both children and adults who desire improved
ear symmetry and proportion. Early intervention during infancy can be
particularly effective due to the soft, pliable cartilage.

AGE CONSIDERATIONS

While ear cartilage can sometimes be remolded in early infancy,
surgical intervention remains a reliable solution for patients of
various ages seeking ear correction.

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

During otoplasty, patients can expect:

 	* Minimal invasive techniques
	* Strategic incision placement
	* Potential use of stabilizing stitches
	* Temporary protective headband post-surgery

EAR PINNING (OTOPLASTY) IN HIGH POINT, NY

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR RESHAPING SURGERY

Otoplasty, commonly known as ear surgery, is a precision cosmetic
procedure designed to adjust the size, position, and proportion of the
ears. This surgical technique can effectively correct ears that
protrude from the head, address misshapen ears, and modify overly
large ear structures.

CANDIDACY FOR EAR SURGERY

Ideal candidates for otoplasty typically have one or more of the
following ear concerns:

 	* Overly large ears
	* Disproportionately shaped ears
	* Asymmetrical ear placement
	* Ears that prominently project from the head
	* Irregular ear shape resulting from injury

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

The otoplasty procedure involves two primary techniques: ear pinning
and cartilage reshaping. Surgeons make incisions behind the ear to
remove excess skin and fat, then recontour the cartilage to restore a
natural ear shape.

ANESTHESIA AND DURATION

Procedure duration typically spans two hours. Children receive general
anesthesia, while adults may opt for local anesthesia with sedation.
The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to
return home the same day.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Patients can expect initial results immediately after surgery, with
final outcomes becoming evident once healing is complete. Most
individuals return to normal activities within one week, though
strenuous activities should be avoided for up to six weeks.

POTENTIAL RISKS

Like any surgical procedure, otoplasty carries minimal risks,
including:

 	* Temporary swelling and redness
	* Potential for infection
	* Rare instances of scarring
	* Possible asymmetry

LONG-TERM CONSIDERATIONS

Otoplasty results are generally permanent and do not typically require
follow-up surgeries. The procedure maintains ear functionality while
improving aesthetic appearance.
