Ear Aesthetic Surgery

Our ear shape is different from each other. In fact, we often see that no two ears look alike. The prominent ear condition, which manifests itself with the auricle standing away from the head, is a very common condition.

The shape of our ears varies from person to person. In fact, we often see that two ears do not resemble each other. Prominent ears, characterized by the outer ear sticking out from the head (commonly referred to as "bat ears" in society), is a fairly common condition. While it does not cause any hearing problems, it can create psychological issues for patients. This problem can be resolved with a short surgery.

Why is Ear Aesthetic Surgery Needed?

We can see children growing their hair long around the temples, girls who do not want to tie their hair, or women who do not want to tie their hair as a result of this psychological pressure. Children are suitable for this surgery from the age of 6 or before starting elementary school.

How is the Surgery Performed?

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia for children under 12 years old and under local anesthesia for those over 12 years old. The cartilage is reshaped through an incision made behind the ear, and sometimes cartilage excision is performed. Bandages are used immediately after the surgery.

Pre- and Post-Surgery Care: Detailed consultations before ear aesthetic surgery are important to understand your expectations and to plan the process correctly.

Post-Surgery Recovery: Swelling and sometimes bruising will occur after the surgery; these usually diminish within a week or two. The bandage used is very important, and it is recommended to be worn day and night for the first month after surgery. Avoiding excessive physical activities is important in the postoperative period. Protecting yourself from the sun is crucial.

Pain and Discomfort: Mild pain may rarely occur after the surgery and should be reported to the doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions

For children under 12 years of age, I perform this surgery by general anesthesia, and for individuals over 12 years of age, I perform this surgery by local anesthesia.
This surgery is a shaping surgery with stitches. Of course, we use non-absorbable sutures. However, in cases such as trauma or battery, these stitches may loosen. We rarely experience this situation especially in boys. If such situations are not encountered, the effect is permanent.
If your child has not started school and you are worried that other children will make fun of him/her, my suggestion is that he/she should have surgery just before starting primary school. If he/she is a child who attends school and is subjected to psychological bullying from his/her peers, it is beneficial to have surgery as soon as possible. The number of patients requesting prominent ear surgery increases in time periods such as school breaks or summer vacations.
