What is Otoplasty?

Otoplasty, also known as ear surgery or ear pinning, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape, reposition, or reduce the size of the ears. Many individuals seek this procedure to correct:

Protruding ears that stick out significantly from the head
Large or asymmetrical ears
Congenital ear deformities
Misshapen earlobes due to trauma or genetics

During the procedure, Dr. Finkel carefully sculpts the cartilage to achieve a balanced, natural ear contour. The incisions are discreetly placed behind the ears to minimize visible scarring.

Otoplasty Incisions & Surgical Technique

During otoplasty surgery, small incisions are typically placed behind the ear or within natural creases, ensuring minimal visibility. The cartilage is reshaped or repositioned using sutures, allowing the ears to sit closer to the head in a more aesthetic alignment.

Dr. Finkel prioritizes precision and natural results, ensuring that each patient achieves balanced and symmetrical ears.

Otoplasty Recovery & Healing Timeline

Otoplasty recovery time varies, but most patients can expect:

• 1 week – Initial swelling and bandages removed

• 6-8 weeks – Healing phase; patients may need to wear a soft headband while sleeping

• 2 months – Resume normal activities with full healing

Dr. Finkel provides personalized post-operative care to ensure a smooth recovery process and optimal long-term results.

Otoplasty Benefits Beyond Aesthetics

✔️ Improved Social Interactions – Correcting protruding or misshapen ears can help patients feel more at ease in social settings.
✔️ Better Fit for Headwear & Hairstyles – Otoplasty allows for a wider range of hairstyle choices without needing to hide the ears.
