OTOPLASTY (EAR SURGERY) IN WESTCHESTER

Otoplasty, commonly known as ear surgery, is a plastic surgery
procedure that can address various ear concerns. Dr. Andrew Kleinman,
a board-certified plastic surgeon in Westchester, specializes in
otoplasty to help patients achieve their desired ear appearance.

CONDITIONS TREATED WITH OTOPLASTY

	* Reducing the size of large ears
	* Ear pinning to set prominent ears closer to the head
	* Correcting ear deformities (lop ear, cupped ear, shell ear)
	* Addressing large or stretched earlobes
	* Treating earlobes with large wrinkles and creases

PERSONALIZED OTOPLASTY TREATMENT

Dr. Kleinman works closely with each patient to develop a customized
treatment plan that addresses their specific needs and desired
outcome. While otoplasty can be performed at any age after four, it is
often recommended for children to minimize potential teasing in
school.

THE OTOPLASTY PROCEDURE

Otoplasty is performed at Dr. Kleinman's Westchester clinic under
local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. The procedure
typically takes two to three hours to complete. Incisions are usually
placed behind the ear for minimal visible scarring.

OTOPLASTY TECHNIQUES

Dr. Kleinman may use various techniques depending on the specific ear
concerns:

	* Sculpting and reshaping ear cartilage
	* Removing excess cartilage
	* Creating a more natural-looking ear fold
	* Securing the new ear shape with stitches

RECOVERY AFTER OTOPLASTY

Following otoplasty, patients can expect:

	* Some swelling and redness of the ears
	* Possible numbness, throbbing, or aching for the first few days
	* Bandages replaced with a lighter dressing after a few days
	* Surface stitches removed within about one week
	* Return to work or school within five to seven days

Dr. Andrew Kleinman's expertise in otoplasty ensures patients receive
personalized care and achieve natural-looking results. To learn more
