Prominent Ear Aesthetics Procedure:
Before surgery, the plastic surgeon evaluates the patient's ear structure and determines the desired aesthetic appearance. Although prominent ear aesthetics usually begins in childhood, it can also be applied to adults.
Protruding ear aesthetics is usually performed under local anesthesia, but general anesthesia can also be used, especially in children.
The surgeon reshapes the ear cartilages. Often, cartilage tissues are removed and reshaped to position the ears closer to the head or reduce protrusion.
After the cartilages are corrected, the surgeon places the stitches. During the healing process, the patient may use a bandage to protect his head.
Things to pay attention:
- Protruding ear aesthetics is generally a safe procedure, but like any surgical intervention, it involves certain risks.
- Mild swelling, bruising and temporary tenderness are normal during the healing process.
- Protruding ear aesthetics in children can have a positive impact on social interactions and self-confidence.
Results:
After prominent ear aesthetics, a more smooth and natural ear appearance is usually achieved. In addition to aesthetic improvements, an increase in individuals' self-confidence can also be observed.
It is important for individuals considering prominent ear aesthetics to have a detailed consultation with a specialist plastic surgeon and understand their expectations and risks regarding the procedure.
