UNDERSTANDING EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY)

Ear surgery, medically known as otoplasty, is a specialized procedure
designed to address prominent or large ears. Typically performed on
children between four and 14 years old, this surgical technique can
reshape ear cartilage to create a more balanced and natural
appearance.

EAR SURGERY TECHNIQUES

Miller Plastic Surgery employs advanced surgical techniques to modify
ear shape and positioning. The most common approaches include:

 	* Cartilage sculpting and repositioning
	* Precise incisions behind the ear
	* Non-removable sutures to maintain new ear shape

CONDITIONS ADDRESSED BY EAR SURGERY

Ear surgery can effectively treat various ear-related aesthetic
concerns, such as:

 	* Protruding ears
	* Oversized ears
	* "Lop ear" with folded tips
	* "Cupped ear" with minimal ear development
	* "Shell ear" lacking natural contours

SURGICAL PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

The ear surgery procedure typically takes two to three hours and can
be performed using local or general anesthesia, depending on the
patient's age and specific requirements. The surgical approach is
tailored to individual anatomical needs and aesthetic goals.

RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE

Post-surgical recovery involves wearing protective bandages and
following specific care instructions. Most patients can return to
normal activities within a week, with full healing occurring over
several weeks.
