Ear Surgery
What is ear surgery?
Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, is performed in order to enhance the appearance of asymmetrical, protruding, or drooping ears. The procedure can be performed to reshape one or both ears, and may involve an earlobe reduction, and the removal and recontouring of excess skin and cartilage.
What does the procedure involve?
During ear surgery, Dr Pillay will make an incision behind the ear in order to expose the cartilage. He will then reshape the cartilage and remove any excess skin. If necessary, Dr Pillay will reposition the ear closer to the head before closing the incision with stitches.
