- Also known as Ear Pinning Surgery / Ear Reshaping Surgery
What is Otoplasty
Otoplasty, also referred to as ear operation, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at reshaping or repositioning the ears to achieve a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance. This surgery is often sought by individuals who are self-conscious about the size or shape of their ears, particularly those with prominent ears that stick out from the head. Otoplasty is not just about aesthetics; it can also address structural issues caused by congenital deformities or trauma.
There are several types of otoplasty procedures, including:
- Ear Pinning: This procedure involves pinning the ears closer to the head to reduce their prominence. It is particularly popular among patients with protruding ears.
- Ear Reduction: This procedure is designed to reduce the size of overly large ears, creating a more harmonious appearance.
- Ear Reconstruction: This more complex procedure is performed to reconstruct ears that are deformed due to congenital issues or trauma.
At Kkaro Clinic, our surgeons are highly experienced in performing all types of otoplasty, using advanced techniques that minimize scarring and ensure natural-looking results.

What is the procedure for Otoplasty
At Kkaro Clinic, the otoplasty procedure is designed to be as smooth and stress-free as possible. Here’s what you can expect:
- Consultation Process: Your otoplasty journey begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this session, your surgeon will assess your ear structure, discuss your goals, and explain the procedure in detail. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have and express any concerns. This step is crucial for ensuring that the surgery aligns with your expectations and that any potential issues are addressed beforehand.
- Surgical Techniques: Otoplasty can be performed using various techniques, depending on the specific needs of the patient. The most common approach involves making an incision behind the ear to access the cartilage. The cartilage is then reshaped and repositioned to achieve the desired look. In some cases, a small portion of the cartilage may be removed to create a more natural contour. Once the desired shape is achieved, the incision is closed with sutures, leaving a scar that is typically hidden in the natural crease behind the ear.
- Anesthesia: Otoplasty is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation, ensuring that you are comfortable and pain-free during the procedure. In some cases, general anesthesia may be used, particularly for younger patients or more complex procedures.
- The Surgery: The actual surgery typically takes between one to two hours, depending on the complexity of the case. During the procedure, the surgeon will carefully reshape the cartilage and reposition the ear to achieve the desired results. The goal is to create ears that are in harmony with the rest of the face, enhancing your natural beauty.
- Recovery Process: After the surgery, you will be taken to a recovery area where you will be monitored as you wake up from the anesthesia. Most patients are able to go home the same day, although some may need to stay overnight for observation. You will be given detailed instructions on how to care for your ears during the recovery period. This will include guidelines on how to manage pain, reduce swelling, and avoid activities that could compromise the healing process.
- Post-Operative Care: Recovery from otoplasty is a gradual process. Most patients are able to return to work or school within one week, although it may take several weeks for the ears to fully settle into their new shape. You will have several follow-up appointments with your surgeon to monitor your progress and ensure that your ears are healing properly. During these appointments, your surgeon will check for any signs of complications and provide you with additional care instructions if needed.
- Long-Term Results: The results of otoplasty are generally permanent, although it may take several months for the final outcome to be fully apparent. Over time, the ears will continue to refine as the swelling subsides and the tissues settle. The goal of otoplasty is to create ears that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also natural-looking and functional.
