Ear surgery or otoplasty improves the shape and size of prominent or prominent ears, improving the general appearance of the face and self-esteem of patients.
During this procedure, a cut is made behind the ear where the cartilage is to be made, a type of fold along the ear to adjust to a convenient size. The scar is small and located behind the ear, where it fades over time. It is a surgery of approximately 2 hours, where local anesthesia and sedation are used.
After surgery, a thin, elastic bandage should be worn for about 4 days. A kind of band is used with which the ears are held back during the day and night, then another month only at night. For foreigners, it is necessary to stay from 7 to 14 days after surgery.
This surgery can be performed at any age. It is not recommended for children under 7 years of age since the ears have not grown by 75%. It is a simple, fast and very low risk surgery.
