Prominent Ear Correction
Prominent ears, where the ears stick out noticeably from the head, are usually a congenital condition. Prominent ear correction is typically achieved through aesthetic surgical procedures, with several methods available.
Otoplasty (Prominent Ear Surgery):
- Classic Method: A small incision is made behind the ear, where the cartilage is reshaped and repositioned closer to the head. The cartilage is then secured with stitches.
- Cartilage Modification: Special incisions and stitches are used to adjust the shape and position of the ear cartilage.
Non-Surgical Methods:
- Ear Bands or Correctional Caps: These are often used for young children. Bands or special caps help keep the ears closer to the head.
Post-Surgery Process:
- After the surgery, there may be swelling and bruising for a few days. The recovery time varies depending on the individual's health and the type of surgery. It is important to follow the doctor's post-operative care instructions.
If you are considering prominent ear correction, it’s beneficial to consult with a cosmetic surgeon. An experienced doctor can help determine the most suitable method and process for you.

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct the size, shape, or position of the ears. This procedure is commonly done for aesthetic purposes.
Suitable candidates for otoplasty are typically individuals who feel self-conscious about the size, shape, or position of their ears and are seeking a surgical solution. This is often common among children or adolescents, but adults can also undergo otoplasty.
Otoplasty is typically performed under local or general anesthesia. The surgery involves making hidden incisions behind or on the back of the ears. After these incisions, the shape, size, or position of the ears are corrected to achieve a more aesthetic appearance.
Post-operative pain from otoplasty is typically minimal and can be managed with prescription or over-the-counter pain medications. There may be discomfort and swelling after surgery, but these usually subside over time.
The recovery process after otoplasty varies from person to person but generally takes a few weeks. During the recovery period, bandages and a special headband may be worn, and careful care of the surgical area is required.
Yes, the results of otoplasty are typically permanent. However, in some cases, corrective or adjustment procedures may be necessary several years after surgery.
