Understanding Otoplasty: Ear Reshaping Solutions

Unconventionally shaped ears or protruding ears can significantly impact an individual's self-esteem. Otoplasty, or ear pinning surgery, offers a transformative solution to restore facial harmony and boost confidence.

What is Otoplasty?

Ear surgery corrects the size and placement of an individual's ears, making them more proportional to the head and face. Typically performed on children ages 4-14, otoplasty can also benefit adults seeking aesthetic improvements.

Ideal Candidates for Ear Pinning Surgery

Dr. Rizk carefully evaluates each patient to determine otoplasty candidacy. Potential candidates include individuals with:

Irregularly shaped ears
Protruding ears
Asymmetrical ear positioning
Desire to improve facial balance

Benefits of Otoplasty

Restores facial balance and harmony
Corrects traumatic ear injuries
Reduces psychological stress from potential ridicule
Suitable for children and adults

Otoplasty Procedure Overview

During ear surgery, Dr. Rizk makes precise incisions behind the ear and contours the cartilage to reshape ears. Anesthesia ensures patient comfort throughout the procedure.

Recovery and Expectations

Otoplasty recovery typically involves minimal downtime. Patients can expect:

Several days of initial recovery
Potential use of a recovery headband
Bandage removal after several days
Return to usual activities within approximately one week

Why Choose Dr. Sam Rizk for Otoplasty?

As a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Rizk brings extensive training and expertise to ear pinning procedures. His meticulous approach ensures natural-looking, confidence-boosting results.

While otoplasty is generally safe, potential risks include:

Mild post-surgical swelling
Potential anesthesia-related side effects
Rare instances of infection

A Surgeon's Surgeon: As a surgeon myself, I have exceptionally high standards. After extensive research, I chose Dr. Sam Rizk for my deep plane facelift and necklift, brow lift, and fat transfer. I flew in from the Midwest specifically for his unparalleled skill and incredible artistry, and I couldn't be more thrilled with my decision and results. My children said it looks like he turned back the clock by 20 years! The results are incredibly beautiful and natural—it still feels and looks like me, just a much younger and prettier version, which I absolutely adore! Beyond his surgical brilliance, Dr. Rizk is incredibly kind, shows remarkable discretion and genuine respect for his patients' privacy. From the first contact, his team—Dila, Tatyana, Hola, and the entire office staff—offered warmth that made me feel immediately at ease. The experience combines the elegance of New York City with the genuine compassion of the Midwest. I am thrilled with my results and incredibly grateful to Dr. Rizk and his wonderful team. In the world of facial plastic surgery, Dr. Rizk stands alone as a true artist and master surgeon—as both a surgeon and patient, I can unequivocally state there is simply no one better to trust if you want natural, beautiful results that still look authentically like you.

I recently had the pleasure of undergoing a brow lift and upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Rizk, and I cannot express enough how pleased I am with the results! From the moment I walked into his office, I felt welcomed and reassured by the professionalism and warmth of the entire staff. Dr. Rizk took the time to thoroughly explain the procedures, addressing all my questions and concerns with patience and clarity. His expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the consultation process, making me feel confident in my decision to move forward. The day of the surgery went smoothly, and Dr. Rizk's team made sure I was comfortable and well-informed at every step. The recovery process was much easier than I anticipated, thanks to his meticulous approach and the care I received. Within a few days, I began to see the incredible results of my brow lift and upper blepharoplasty. For my one week follow-up he happened to be in Miami performing a live surgery for a symposium he was a part of and during his time there he made sure to see me to remove my stitches. It worked out perfectly because I live in Miami. The transformation is nothing short of amazing! My eyes look brighter and more youthful, and the lifted brow has given my face a refreshed appearance. Thank you, Dr. Rizk!

I recently went to Dr. Rizk for a Deep plane face/neck lift, laser and fat transfer to under eyes. I knew first hand from family and friends who used him, what a magician he is as a surgeon. He is warm, professional, meticulous and genuinely passionate and excited about transforming people to look like a fresh and younger version of themselves. My results have been amazing! I am 1 week post surgery and I can already see the beautiful differences. I'm just so grateful and thrilled with the outcome... Also, everyone from the office staff to the nurses and my anesthesiologist were exceptional! Hands down best experience! I couldn't recommend Dr. Rizk and his staff enough to anyone looking for the most natural transformation!

I had a deep plane face/neck lift with Dr. Rizk on April 9th, 2024. I cannot say enough about Dr. Rizk and his amazing staff. From the moment you walk into his office you can tell that you have walked into a special place. Dila, the office manager greets everyone with a beautiful smile. The nurses Tatyana and Jola are very compassionate and caring, they will hold your hand through the entire process. Nobody walks into a deep plane facelift without having some reservations and anxiety, however if you are fortunate enough to walk into Dr. Rizk’s office, rest assured you are in the right place. Out of all the doctors I have encountered throughout my life I can say Dr. Rizk is one of a kind. Not only is he a phenomenal surgeon, he is empathetic and genuinely cares about his patients. The care that I received from my consultation to my post surgical care has been stellar. I highly recommend Dr. Rizk, he is an artistic genius at his craft. I could not have made a better decision choosing Dr. Rizk as my surgeon.

I am now 8 months after a deep plane Face/Neck lift, chin implant, and fat transfer. I am a female in my late 50's and after some weight loss I notice my face was sagging. I was referred to Dr. Rizk by a mutual friend who had surgery with him. Dr. Rizk is not just a surgeon, I truly believe he is a gifted artist. He saw things in our consult that other surgeons never saw or mentioned to me, I had met with 3 previous surgeons in the NYC area. What stuck out to me the most was he did a lot of revision facelifts and revision rhinoplasty from other surgeons that failed, that to me was a large selling point. His office manager also recently had surgery and she looked beautiful, I got to see her results up close and that gave me some comfort. Dr. Rizk has the most wonderful team, his staff has been with him for years which says alot about the doctor. My nurses Tatiana and Jola were very helpful with answering all my questions. Dila the office manager helped me with arranging my hotel stay and everything I needed to help make my whole experience as pleasant as can be. The day after my surgery Dr. Rizk arrived early to the hotel where I was staying with one of the nurses. I am loving my results and I dont think I have ever had a jawline like I have now. I still look like myself just more beautiful and refresh. I highly recommend meeting with Dr. Rizk if you are considering having a facelift or any facial procedure. Thank you so much Dr. Rizk and team for changing my life. I am beyond happy with my results.
