Otoplasty FAQ for Macon Patients
Age Considerations
Otoplasty can be performed once ears reach near-full size, typically around ages 6-8. Early intervention offers advantages in cartilage shaping and preventing childhood teasing.
Long-Term Results
Otoplasty results are generally permanent, though natural aging and external factors may impact long-term appearance. Regular follow-ups help maintain optimal results.
