EAR RESHAPING SURGERY (OTOPLASTY) IN COLUMBUS, IN

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR CORRECTION SURGERY

Otoplasty is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to improve the
appearance of ears without affecting hearing function. This
transformative surgery provides significant psychological benefits for
individuals self-conscious about ear size, shape, or symmetry.

CONDITIONS ADDRESSED BY OTOPLASTY

Southern Indiana Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery offers comprehensive ear
correction for various conditions, including:

 	* Protruding ears
	* Abnormal ear constructions
	* Cauliflower ear from repeated trauma
	* Large or stretched earlobes
	* Microtia (abnormally small ears)

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR EAR RESHAPING

Otoplasty candidates typically include children between 4 and 14 years
old, though adults may also benefit. Patients should be in good
general health and have realistic expectations about surgical
outcomes.

THE OTOPLASTY PROCEDURE IN COLUMBUS

The surgical process typically takes 2-3 hours and is performed on an
outpatient basis. Depending on patient age, either general or local
anesthesia with sedation will be administered.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

Southern Indiana Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery surgeons perform
otoplasty by making a small incision behind the ear, sculpting and
reshaping the cartilage to achieve the desired appearance. Sutures and
specialized bandaging ensure proper healing and symmetry.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to normal
activities within one week. Surgical scars are strategically placed to
remain virtually invisible, ensuring natural-looking results.

POTENTIAL RISKS AND CONSIDERATIONS

While complications are rare, patients should understand potential
risks such as minor infections or changes in skin sensation. Southern
Indiana Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery prioritizes patient education and
comprehensive care throughout the surgical journey.
