Otoplosty

Medical Name: Otoplosty

Also Known As: Ear Reconstruction, Pin Protruding Ears

The Procedure: The purpose of the procedure is to "pin back" or alter the shape of the ears and correct malformed, large, protruding or floppy ears, caused by the absence of folds inside the ear. An incision is made behind the ear and the cartilage is reshaped. No visible scarring occurs, as the incision is concealed in the natural crease behind the ear.

Dr. Hanna’s Notes: When a child is between four and six years of age, his or her ears have grown sufficiently enough and the cartilage which determines the ear's shape is pliable enough to undergo corrective surgery. I do advise having this procedure done prior to the beginning of school, so psychological trauma can be averted. This procedure can, of course also be performed on adults.
