Otoplasty: Plastic surgery Royal✓

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure used to correct ears that are too protruding, asymmetrical or have irregularities in shape. This operation aims to improve the aesthetic appearance of the ears and increase the patient's self-confidence. Otoplasty is one of the most common aesthetic procedures, especially for children and adults who want to solve problems with the appearance of their ears.

Why is otoplasty needed?

Ears that stick out too much (known as "horns") can cause emotional discomfort and lower self-confidence. Children, especially of school age, can become the subject of teasing for these aesthetic problems, which can have a negative impact on their social and emotional well-being. Although many people with protruding ears do not have serious health problems, the problem is mostly aesthetic in nature.

In addition to aesthetic reasons, otoplasty can also be beneficial for people who have suffered ear injuries or have congenital anomalies, such as asymmetrical or disproportionate ears.

What does otoplasty surgery look like?

Otoplasty is a relatively simple surgical procedure that is usually performed under local anesthesia. In some cases, for people who fear surgery or are younger patients, general anesthesia is used.

The surgeon makes a small incision behind the ear, through which he accesses the cartilage in the auricle. Depending on the patient's requirements and the nature of the problem, the surgeon can remove part of the cartilage, reduce its volume or change its shape, thereby achieving the desired result. Sometimes, if necessary, a suture is used to shape the ear and fix it in a new position.

The operation usually lasts between 1 and 2 hours, and the patient can go home the same day, as a long stay in the hospital is usually not required.

Postoperative period and recovery

After surgery, patients are advised to wear a protective ear bandage for several days to reduce swelling and ensure proper recovery. In the initial days, there may be slight pain, swelling or redness, which is completely normal.

Returning to normal activities is usually possible after a few days, but it is recommended to avoid physical activities that may cause injury or pressure on the ears during the first two weeks. Stitches are usually removed after 7 to 10 days.

Advantages of otoplasty

The main advantage of otoplasty is the improvement of the aesthetic appearance of the ears, which often leads to a significant increase in self-confidence in patients. People who opt for this surgery usually report that they feel better in social situations, and their self-confidence increases, because they no longer worry about the appearance of their ears. Otoplasty can also eliminate the psychological stress that can be caused by teasing or negative comments regarding the appearance of the ears.

Is otoplasty right for you?

Before you decide on otoplasty, it is important to consult with a specialist in plastic surgery, who will evaluate your needs and wishes, as well as the possible risks and benefits of the operation. Otoplasty is a safe and effective procedure, but, like any surgical procedure, it is important that it is performed by an expert.

Otoplasty is an operation that not only improves the physical appearance, but also the emotional state of patients, allowing them to feel better about their body.
