Understanding Otoplasty: Ear Correction Surgery

Otoplasty is a specialized cosmetic surgical procedure designed to modify the size, shape, or positioning of the ears. This precision surgical technique aims to harmonize ear appearance with facial features while addressing structural irregularities caused by congenital conditions or previous injuries.

Candidates for Ear Reshaping Surgery

Otoplasty may be an ideal solution for individuals experiencing specific ear-related aesthetic concerns, including:

• Prominently protruding ears
• Disproportionate ear size relative to head dimensions
• Asymmetrical ear positioning
• Unsatisfactory results from previous ear surgeries

Precision Surgical Techniques

Guthrie Facial Plastic Surgery utilizes advanced surgical methods to achieve natural-looking ear refinement. The procedure involves carefully reshaping cartilage and repositioning ear structures to create balanced, harmonious results tailored to each patient's unique facial anatomy.

Otoplasty Procedure Overview

During the surgical consultation, Dr. Ashley Guthrie, a fellowship-trained facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to develop a personalized treatment plan addressing the patient's specific aesthetic goals.

Surgical Approach

The otoplasty procedure typically involves strategic incisions behind the ear, allowing surgical modification of cartilage and soft tissue to achieve the desired shape and positioning. Advanced techniques minimize visible scarring and ensure natural-looking outcomes.

Recovery and Expectations
