Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)

Otoplasty, commonly known as ear surgery, is a cosmetic procedure aimed at reshaping or repositioning protruding or misshapen ears. It can enhance the appearance of the ears, making them closer to the head or more symmetrical. This surgery is usually performed on children, but adults can also undergo the procedure. It typically involves making small incisions behind the ears to adjust the cartilage. Otoplasty can boost self-esteem and improve one's overall appearance without major risks, and it usually involves a recovery period of a few weeks.
