Otoplasty
Otoplasty, A surgical procedure to change the form of the ear, or ears, by adjusting their position, shape and size.

COSMETIC EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY)
Otoplasty is a surgical procedure to address concerns you might have around the form and shape of you or your child’s ears. The procedure involves a simple incision behind the ear where the cartilage of the ear could be removed, scored and possibly readjusted before a splint is added to support the healing process. A consultation with a plastic surgeon will determine whether you are an ideal candidate and they will propose the best approach to deal directly with your concerns.
