UNDERSTANDING EAR SURGERY

Ear surgery, medically known as otoplasty, is a specialized surgical
procedure designed to reposition or "pin back" protruding ears. While
most commonly performed on children before school age, an increasing
number of adults seek this procedure to achieve facial harmony.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF EAR SURGERY

 	* Typically performed on both ears for balanced results
	* Procedure duration: 1-2 hours
	* Minimal scarring due to strategic incision placement

SURGICAL PROCEDURE DETAILS

English Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery Center performs ear surgery using
either local or general anesthesia. For children, general anesthesia
is preferred to ensure patient comfort during the two-hour procedure.
Incisions are strategically placed behind the ear to minimize visible
scarring.

RECOVERY PROCESS

Post-surgical recovery involves specific care protocols to ensure
optimal healing:

 	* Initial 24-hour surgical dressing application
	* Continuous headband wear for two weeks
	* Gradual return to normal activities within two weeks
	* Avoid contact sports for up to six weeks

PATIENT EXPERIENCE

Patients can expect mild initial numbness and temporary bruising. Most
individuals report minimal discomfort, with significant improvement
within four to six weeks after the procedure.

TYPICAL PATIENT OBSERVATIONS

 	* Initial ear numbness
	* Temporary flattened ear appearance
	* Bruising lasting 2-4 weeks
