An otoplasty surgery, more commonly known as ear surgery was performed on nearly 30,000 patients in 2010 according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. During the initial consultation, your plastic surgeon will discuss where and how your ear surgery will be done. Depending on the type of surgery you will undergo, your procedure may be performed in an accredited surgical facility, such as a hospital or the doctor’s office.
Otoplasty
Otoplasty, commonly known as ear surgery, is performed to set prominent ears back closer to the head or to reduce the size of large ears.
For the most part, the operation is done on children between the ages of four and 14. Ears are almost fully grown by age four, and the earlier the surgery, the less teasing and ridicule the child will have to endure. Ear surgery on adults is also possible, and there are generally no additional risks associated with ear surgery on an older patient.
This young male patient from Orange county, California was interested in otoplasty surgery. He has been unhappy with the projection of his ears for as long as he can remember. The patient was apprehensive about his prominent ears for many years. He researched for a Board Certified facial Plastic Surgeon and finally found Dr. Sadati by recommendation of one of his relatives. The patient is now 1-month post op surgery and is pleased with his results.
