UNDERSTANDING EAR SURGERY (OTOPLASTY)

Ear Surgery, medically known as Otoplasty, is a specialized procedure
designed to improve the shape and position of the ears. The goal is to
create a more natural ear appearance that brings balance and
proportion to the facial features.

WHAT CONDITIONS CAN EAR SURGERY ADDRESS?

 	* Protruding ears
	* "Lop" ears with folded ear tips
	* Congenital ear structure defects
	* Ear deformities resulting from injury

EAR SURGERY PROCEDURE DETAILS

Dr. Burke Robinson performs ear surgery using a precise surgical
approach. An incision is strategically placed in the crease behind the
ear, allowing for minimal visible scarring. Depending on the specific
case, the procedure may involve:

 	* Cartilage reshaping
	* Cartilage removal
	* Permanent suturing to secure ear position

RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE

The recovery process for ear surgery is relatively straightforward.
Patients can typically return to school or work within one week, with
full activity resumption possible in approximately two weeks. A soft
headband is recommended for nighttime wear during initial healing.

CANDIDACY FOR EAR SURGERY

Ideal candidates for otoplasty often have an inherited trait
characterized by an ear-to-skull angle exceeding 30 degrees. Common
ear malformations include a poorly formed antihelical fold or an
overdeveloped conchal bowl.

PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS

Beyond physical correction, ear surgery can significantly improve
self-esteem, particularly for children who may experience social
challenges due to ear appearance. Early intervention can prevent
potential psychological impacts of peer ridicule.
