OTOPLASTY (EAR SURGERY) PANAMA CITY BEACH, FL | COASTAL PLASTIC
SURGERY INSTITUTE - DR. ANDREW MCALLISTER

UNDERSTANDING EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY)

Ear surgery, medically known as otoplasty, is a specialized procedure
designed to address aesthetic concerns with ear shape, size, and
positioning. The procedure can effectively correct various ear-related
conditions, including:

 	* Protruding ear(s)
	* Large ear(s)
	* Abnormally shaped ear(s)

AGE CONSIDERATIONS FOR EAR SURGERY

Coastal Plastic Surgery Institute recommends ear surgery for children
around ages five or six when ear development is nearly complete. Early
correction can help prevent potential psychological challenges
associated with teasing or self-consciousness. Adults are also
excellent candidates for ear reshaping procedures, with no strict
upper age limit for the surgery.

PRE-SURGICAL RECOMMENDATIONS

Patients considering ear surgery should be in good overall health.
Smokers are advised to cease smoking well in advance of the procedure,
as smoking can significantly impact healing capabilities.
Additionally, certain medications that increase bleeding risks, such
as aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and specific
vitamins or homeopathic treatments, should be discontinued prior to
the surgical intervention.

CUSTOMIZED EAR SURGERY APPROACH

Coastal Plastic Surgery Institute provides personalized ear surgery
consultations to determine the most appropriate surgical technique for
each patient's unique anatomical requirements and aesthetic goals.
