Understanding Ear Surgery (Otoplasty)

Protruding, misshapen, or oversized ears can significantly impact self-confidence, particularly for children. Ear reshaping surgery, medically known as otoplasty, is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to balance ear size and shape. Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery offers transformative ear surgery solutions for patients in the Pensacola area.

Procedure Overview

Ear surgery is suitable for patients of all ages, with many procedures performed on children as young as six. The surgical approach involves carefully reshaping ear cartilage to create a more natural, symmetrical appearance. Surgeons typically use general anesthesia, IV sedation, or local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.

Surgical Technique

During the procedure, surgeons make precise incisions behind or within the ear. The cartilage is delicately reshaped to achieve a balanced, harmonious look. Both ears are adjusted to ensure symmetry, with careful attention to creating natural-looking results.
