What is Otoplasty?
Otoplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure that adjusts the position, size, and proportion of ears. This technique is suitable for patients of all ages who want to:
- Correct ears that protrude too far from the head

- Improve self-confidence through aesthetic ear modifications
Surgical Approach
At Anh Vu, M.D., each otoplasty begins with a comprehensive consultation. Dr. Vu meticulously plans the surgery based on individual aesthetic goals, ensuring personalized and natural-looking results.
Procedure Details
The otoplasty procedure involves precise incisions made either inside or behind the ears. Dr. Vu carefully removes or repositions cartilage to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome. The surgery is performed under anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and minimize potential discomfort.
Recovery and Results
Patients can expect mild swelling and bruising for approximately one week following the procedure. Full results become visible after two weeks. Most patients resume normal activities within a week, with Dr. Vu providing specific post-surgical care instructions.
