Otoplasty #11902

Patient Information
Case Notes
This wonderful young lady was bothered by the look of her ears. They were prominent ears and she wanted to wear her hair up in a ponytail. She was also interested in a natural appearance without a big scar behind her ears. She underwent incisionless otoplasty in the office. She was amazed at the procedure, done in less than many movies, was nearly painless. She had a wrap on the first night but then this was removed. The next day, you can see the ears are bruised and swollen but they already look pretty good. Then, by 1 week, the ears are significantly less bruised. She is able to go out at 1 week with her hair over her ears. Typically, men will still be a little shy at going out as the hair may not cover the ears and bruises may still be visible. Dr. Eric Carniol performs this surgery in the office for adults and mature young adults, and in the operating room for children or for those who prefer to be asleep.
