EAR RESHAPING SURGERY (OTOPLASTY) FORT WORTH, TX | DR CANDACE LOVELACE

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY IN FORT WORTH

Ear reshaping surgery, or otoplasty, addresses prominent ears that
extend further from the head than typical. This procedure helps
patients overcome self-consciousness and reduce potential social
stigma associated with distinctive ear appearances.

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Through a small incision behind the ear, surgeons can carefully
reshape ear cartilage, helping ears sit closer to the head. This
cosmetic procedure is most successful when performed around age five,
though it remains effective for patients of all ages.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR OTOPLASTY

 	* Healthy individuals seeking ear shape or position correction
	* Patients aged five and older
	* Individuals with realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Otoplasty is a purely cosmetic procedure that does not impact hearing
ability. The surgery provides a permanent solution for individuals
feeling self-conscious about ear prominence.

SURGICAL PREPARATION AND RECOVERY

Successful otoplasty requires careful preparation and adherence to
post-operative guidelines. Patients should arrange transportation,
create a comfortable recovery space, and follow specific medical
recommendations.

PRE-SURGERY RECOMMENDATIONS

 	* Secure transportation home after the procedure
	* Prepare a resting area with head elevation
	* Quit smoking 4-6 weeks before and after surgery
	* Avoid alcohol 48 hours before and after the procedure

RECOVERY DETAILS

Most patients return to light work or school within one week.
Dissolvable sutures eliminate the need for removal, and a soft
headband is typically recommended during initial healing. Scars
gradually flatten and fade between three months and two years
post-surgery.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

Like all surgical procedures, otoplasty carries potential risks
including bleeding, infection, and rare complications. A comprehensive
consultation with Dr. Lovelace will help patients understand and
mitigate these risks.

CONSULTATION PREPARATION

During the initial consultation, patients should be prepared to
discuss medical history, appearance goals, and undergo a detailed ear
examination. Dr. Lovelace will provide personalized guidance and a
