Otoplasty
Otoplasty
(ear pinning) is designed to correct protruding ears. This may be
addressed either as a child as young as 6 or in adults. The
incisions are confined to the skin behind the ear and involve some
combination of sutures, cartilage excision and skin removal. A
headband is generally worn for about 6 weeks after surgery to ensure
that the sutures are not stressed. Recovery is fairly quick, about
1 or 2 weeks.
