Ear Surgery (Otoplasty) in Beverly Hills

What is Ear Surgery?

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure that repositions, minimizes, or augments the ears. This specialized technique can reduce oversized ears, adjust protruding ears, treat microtia, and reshape asymmetrical ear structures.

Procedure Overview

Dr. Zarrabi performs ear surgery using advanced techniques that minimize incisions and maximize natural-looking results. The procedure typically involves:

• Precise cartilage reshaping
• Strategic suture placement
• Customized approach for each patient

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates for ear surgery include individuals who want to:

• Achieve more symmetrical ear appearance
• Correct protruding or misshapen ears
• Improve ear proportions
• Address childhood ear-related self-esteem concerns

Surgical Process

Ear surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation for adults and general anesthesia for children. The procedure usually takes 2-3 hours, with results becoming apparent immediately after healing.

Recovery Expectations

Most patients can resume normal activities within three days. A protective headband is worn for approximately one week, and strenuous activities should be avoided for two weeks following the procedure.

Benefits of Ear Surgery

Beyond physical transformation, otoplasty offers significant psychological benefits, including:

• Enhanced self-confidence
