The Intervention
Ear reshaping is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation or under general anesthesia. The procedure involves several steps:
- Incision: A small incision is made behind the ear in the natural skin fold to minimize scarring.
- Shaping the Cartilage: The ear cartilage is reshaped and positioned as desired. Excess cartilage may be removed if necessary.
- Suturing: The incisions are closed with fine stitches, and dressings are applied to support the new ear shape.

What is Ear Shaping?
Ear reshaping, also known as otoplasty, is a surgical procedure to improve the shape, size, and position of the ears. This surgery is often performed to correct protruding, asymmetrical, or deformed ears and create an aesthetically pleasing and harmonious appearance.
Why Ear Shaping?
Irregularities in the shape or position of the ears can significantly impact self-confidence. Ear contouring offers a permanent solution to bring the ears closer to the head, harmonize their shape, and improve the overall appearance of the face. This procedure is particularly suitable for individuals who want to improve their appearance and boost their self-confidence.
