FAQ

Frequently
asked questions

Find answers to common questions about evaluation, technique, and recovery for otoplasty.

What is otoplasty?

Otoplasty is surgery that reshapes the ear cartilage to treat prominence, asymmetries, and some deformities. The technique is determined individually after a medical evaluation.

Who might be a candidate for the procedure?

Suitability takes into account the shape, position, and symmetry of the ears, as well as each person’s health and expectations. A consultation allows the case to be assessed safely.

Can children have otoplasty?

This possibility is assessed individually, considering ear development, the child’s health, and guidance from their parents or guardians. The team explains the most appropriate timing during the consultation.

What is recovery like?

Recovery time and care vary according to the recommended technique and each person’s response. The team provides guidance on dressings, a protective headband, and returning to activities.

Does surgery leave a scar?

Incisions are planned in discreet areas, usually behind the ears. Healing varies from person to person and is monitored at follow-up appointments.

What happens at the first consultation?

The first consultation includes listening to your expectations, evaluating ear anatomy, reviewing your health, and discussing possibilities, care, and follow-up.
