An Otoplasty is done to reshape the ears. Depending on the patient health and condition, doctors
may use local or general anesthesia. There are many techniques to perform an otoplasty, the

Otoplasty frequent questions
Get answers to our most frequently asked questions and what to expect after the surgery.
Am I a candidate for otoplasty?
Candidates for surgery usually have them for cosmetic purposes, like correcting the size of ears, or placing them closer to the head. We recommend you to contact any of the certified specialists for an evaluation to determine if you are a candidate for surgery.
Is this procedure painful?
You won't experience any discomfort during the procedure, and after surgery, you'll be advised to protect your ears while sleeping to avoid any potential harm.
What is the expected recovery time?
The recovery period is relatively brief and mild. In most cases, patients can resume their work routine after 7 days, although swelling may persist for up to 6 weeks. If stitch removal is required, your doctor will schedule an appointment as needed.
How long do the results typically last?
The results are typically long-lasting, with permanent outcomes for the majority of patients.
