Otoplasty is used to reshape, resize, or reposition the ears for cosmetic or structural reasons. It commonly treats ears that stick out or have shape differences, helping create symmetry and balance.
During the surgery, you won’t feel pain because anesthesia is used. After surgery, you may feel mild soreness or discomfort as the ears heal, which usually improves with medicine prescribed by your surgeon.
Otoplasty usually takes about 1–2 hours depending on the amount of correction needed. Most people can go home the same day.
Like all surgeries, otoplasty has possible risks including bleeding, infection, scarring, asymmetry, and changes in skin sensation. Most risks are uncommon and can be minimized with proper care.
After bandages are removed and swelling goes down, you’ll start to see the new ear shape. Most people notice a clear improvement in 2–3 weeks although full healing takes longer.
Yes. Otoplasty can be done on children once the ears are mostly grown, usually around age 4–6. A surgeon will assess readiness based on individual development.
Otoplasty is cosmetic and does not change your ability to hear. It reshapes the outer ear only and does not interfere with hearing structures.
Most people return to normal activities in about a week. Full healing, including reduction of swelling and final ear position, may take several weeks. Follow your surgeon’s instructions for optimal recovery.
