What is Otoplasty?
Otoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping or resizing the ears to improve their appearance.
What does the procedure involve?
The procedure involves making incisions behind the ears, removing or reshaping cartilage, and suturing the ear back into place.
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is usually performed under local or general anesthesia, so the patient will not feel any pain during the procedure. However, there may be some discomfort during the recovery period.
What is the recovery time for Otoplasty?
The recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the procedure, but most patients can return to work or school within a week.
Can I wear glasses after the surgery?
Patients are usually advised to avoid wearing glasses for several weeks after the surgery in order to avoid putting pressure on the ears.
