IMPORTANT FACTORS ABOUT OTOPLASTY AND EAR RE-SHAPING

What happens during an otoplasty procedure? In short, the surgeon administers medication to stop you from feeling any pain during surgery. Afterward, he makes an incision (usually on the back side of the ear). When it comes to correcting protruding ears, special techniques are employed to create or expand the antihelical fold and reduce the patient’s conchal cartilage. Using external stitches, Dr. Bittar will close the incision. He will offer you a comprehensive set of instructions that should be followed after your otoplasty procedure to favor a fast, trouble-free recovery.

The results of cosmetic ear surgery may vary a great deal, based on the patient’s real needs and the desired level of change. Individuals who have decided to correct the appearance of their ears get to witness immediate positive results. The final effects of extensive reconstruction may appear gradually, in different stages, over a larger period. Since the ears may be re-positioned closer to the patient’s head, the scars are not very visible. In most cases, surgical scars are conveniently camouflaged by the creases of the patient’s ear.

It is very important to follow your doctor’s indications before and after the surgery. Bandages should be kept in place at all times, even if your skin feels itchy under them. Pain and discomfort could be kept under control by taking pain medication prescribed by your doctor. Those who fail to comply with the surgeon’s recommendations take on bigger risks. Failure to follow the doctor’s set of instructions could lead to complications requiring a new intervention.
