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?
During the procedure, you won’t feel any pain. After surgery, you will be asked to cover your ears while sleeping to prevent them from being hurt.
