Ear Pinning Surgery (Otoplasty) in Roseville

Understanding Otoplasty

Otoplasty is a safe, effective ear surgery designed to reshape and reposition ears for enhanced facial harmony. This procedure can address prominent, asymmetrical, or oversized ears, helping patients achieve a more balanced appearance and improved self-confidence.

Conditions Otoplasty Can Treat

• Protruding ears angled forward
• Overly large ear dimensions
• Misshapen ear structures
• Irregularities from genetics or injuries

Surgical Procedure Details

During otoplasty, surgeons make strategic incisions to sculpt and reposition ear cartilage. The procedure can be performed using local or general anesthesia, depending on patient age and preference.

Surgical Techniques

• Small incision behind the ear
• Cartilage reshaping and repositioning
• Non-removable sutures for secure placement

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from otoplasty typically involves minimal discomfort and quick healing. Patients can expect to return to normal activities within one week, with full results becoming apparent as swelling subsides.

Post-Procedure Guidelines

• Initial head bandaging for protection
• Light headband replacement after few days
• Avoid strenuous activities for 1-2 months

Candidate Requirements

Ideal otoplasty candidates include individuals who:

• Are in good overall health
• Have realistic surgical expectations
• Do not smoke
• Are bothered by ear appearance
