Pinnaplasty, often referred to as otoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to address the appearance of protruding or prominent ears. This cosmetic surgery is commonly sought by individuals, including children and adults, who may feel self-conscious about the shape, size, or positioning of their ears.
During the pinnaplasty procedure, a plastic surgeon typically makes incisions behind the ear or within the natural creases of the ear to access the cartilage. Depending on the specific concerns, the surgeon may reshape, reposition, or pin back the ears to achieve a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance. In some cases, excess skin may also be removed.
Pinnaplasty is known for its ability to provide immediate and long-lasting results, and it can significantly boost an individual's self-confidence. While it primarily addresses cosmetic concerns, it does not impact the ear's function or hearing ability. Recovery time is relatively short, with most individuals able to return to their normal activities within a few weeks. It is essential to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss individual goals and determine if pinnaplasty is the right choice for achieving the desired ear appearance.
