Our Practice
The best candidates are healthy individuals with no medical history that could lead to postoperative complications. Dr. Papanastasiou will be in a good position to tell you if you are a good candidate for this surgery.
The procedure most often is carried out under local anesthesia in our surgical clinic and involves a small incision on the back of your ear and several sutures being placed in the cartilage, folding the cartilage to pin the ear back and give it a more natural appearance.
A dressing is applied and is usually removed one week after the operation. Post-operative discomfort should be minimal as is the bruising and swelling. You can return to normal activities within one week but should be careful with contact sports for at least 4 to 6 weeks.
