Otoplasty(Prominent Ear)
 

This is the condition of the auricle which is larger or more projecting than desired when viewed from the front or the back. This condition is a reason for an important psychological trauma in young men and women. I perform the operation under local anaesthesia unless there is a special condition or state of sickness. It takes approximately 60-90 minutes for both ears. The scar which shall be left on the skin in the back of the auricle is not usually noticeable nor disturbing. Once the ear cartilages have been given the necessary folds and some catilage has been removed as necessary and the aurcile including the earlobe pulled over to the head folding backwards, the operation is completed by puncturing holes in the earlobe if so desired. The pateitn may leave hospital on foot in a short time.

The bandage covering the ears is retained for a period of 4-5 days and then a decision is made in the very first examination as to whether a second bandage should be applied for a similar period of time or to leave the ears exposed, depending on the technique used and on the condition of the ears.
The patient is recommended to protect his/her ears for a period of 2 months and not to participate in any struggling sports and other unchecked activities which may cause trauma.
