Children are the most likely candidates for ear reshaping (otoplasty), but this surgery can be performed at any age after the ears have reached full size, usually around five to six years of age. Surgery begins with an incision behind the ear. Our surgeons remove the necessary amounts of cartilage and skin required to achieve the right effect. In some instances, they will not remove any cartilage at all, using stitches to hold the cartilage permanently in place. After sculpting the cartilage to the desired shape, our surgeons apply sutures to anchor the ear until healing occurs to hold the ear in the desired position. Soft dressings applied to the ears will remain for a few days. Most patients experience some mild discomfort.
