EAR PINNING SURGERY (OTOPLASTY) SOUTHLAKE, TX | JONATHAN HEISTEIN MD

UNDERSTANDING OTOPLASTY: EAR CORRECTION SURGERY

Otoplasty, commonly known as ear pinning, is a precise surgical
procedure designed to correct protruding ears. This specialized
treatment can be performed on patients as young as six years old and
continues to be effective for adult patients seeking ear reshaping.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE AND APPROACH

The ear pinning procedure involves carefully placed incisions behind
the ear, utilizing a combination of advanced surgical techniques
including:

 	* Strategic suture placement
	* Precise cartilage modification
	* Selective skin removal

RECOVERY AND POST-SURGICAL CARE

Patients can expect a relatively quick recovery period, typically
lasting one to two weeks. A protective medical band is recommended to
support proper healing and maintain surgical results.

OTOPLASTY CONSIDERATIONS AND PATIENT EXPECTATIONS

During the initial consultation, Dr. Jonathan Heistein thoroughly
evaluates patient candidacy, discusses individual goals, and addresses
any potential safety concerns related to the ear reshaping procedure.

COST FACTORS FOR EAR PINNING SURGERY

The total cost of Otoplasty varies based on several important factors,
including:

 	* Anesthesia fees
	* Surgical facility expenses
	* Post-surgical garments
	* Medication requirements
	* Specific surgical techniques employed

FREQUENTLY ADDRESSED PATIENT CONCERNS

Most patients have questions about scarring, surgical risks, and
procedural outcomes. Dr. Heistein ensures that otoplasty scars are
strategically placed behind the ears, minimizing visibility and
promoting natural-looking results.

POTENTIAL SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS

While complications are rare when performed by an experienced
board-certified plastic surgeon, patients should understand potential
risks such as minor blood clotting or temporary infection, which can
be effectively managed with proper medical care.
