Ear Reshapping
What is ear reshaping?
Ear reshaping is a procedure that reduces the size of ears, reshapes them, or pin back ears that may stick out. This procedure can change the overall appearance of the face and boost confidence.
What types of ear reshaping are available?
An Otoplasty or pinnaplasty are both the same ear procedure, which is the surgical reshaping, resizing or pining of the ears. The procedure usually involves a small incision behind the ear, removal of cartilage and scoring and stitching into the right position and shape.
Is ear reshaping for you?
- Before choosing to have your ears reshaped, you need to consider:
- Does your ear’s appearance bother you?
- Do you experience low self-esteem because of your ears?
- Can you stop smoking?
- Would being unable to wash your hair for 7-10 days be an issue?
You should always speak to your surgeon about all of these things in the consultation, before going ahead with the surgery.
