Understanding Otoplasty
In Omaha, otoplasty pins back and reshapes ears that protrude too far from the head. This procedure comes as a great relief to children who are often forced to endure painful teasing and to adults who feel
self-conscious about their ears and often hide them under long hair.
In your consultation, one of our compassionate, board-certified plastic surgeons will sit down with you to listen to your goals, address any concerns and show you realistic results using our state-of-the-art computer imaging system.
Your Otoplasty Procedure
During otoplasty, your surgeon places an incision behind the ear to reshape the cartilage and skin. The ear is then folded back and set closer to the skull to achieve a more balanced appearance. Your physician completes the procedure by using tiny stitches to hold the ear in place while it heals. Otoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia, but we can accommodate some adults who prefer a local anesthetic.
Enjoying Your Results
Following surgery, you may experience some swelling and bruising. Any discomfort is usually managed with over-the-counter pain medicine. If stronger medication is needed, your surgeon will write a prescription. As with any procedure, following post-surgical instructions will maximize comfort and results.
When performed by a skilled plastic surgeon, otoplasty can have a tremendous impact on your quality of life. Not only will you enjoy the physical benefits of well-proportioned ears, but you will also enjoy the emotional benefits associated with increased confidence.
