Soler Plastic & Reconstructive offers precise ear reshaping for patients throughout Tampa and southwest Florida, including St. Petersburg and Clearwater.
Otoplasty Procedure Details
- Performed under general anesthesia
- Outpatient surgical procedure
- Suitable for patients aged five and older
- Ears typically achieve normal appearance within 10-20 days
Surgical Approach
Dr. Soler performs otoplasty with meticulous attention to creating natural-looking ears with normal shape, folds, and protrusion. Patients will need to wear a protective headband for two to three weeks post-surgery and avoid contact sports for approximately 30 days.
Otoplasty Candidacy and Considerations
Otoplasty is considered a cosmetic procedure and is not typically covered by insurance. During your consultation, Dr. Soler will comprehensively evaluate your candidacy, discuss potential risks, and determine the most appropriate surgical approach for your specific needs.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
Initial discomfort can be managed with oral pain medication. Patients traveling from outside the Tampa area are advised to plan for a few days of recovery, with specific recommendations provided during the initial consultation.
