What is Ear Surgery?
Ears that appear to protrude and stick out, are misshapen and uneven, or look unnaturally big can affect your self-confidence, especially during childhood. Ear surgery, also known as otoplasty, is a cosmetic treatment that helps to recontour the size and shape of the ears to result in a pleasing look. Dr. Jose Rodriguez is a plastic surgeon in San Diego, CA who has helped many men and women overcome the embarrassment of exposing their ears by undergoing this surgery. Regardless of the physical irregularity, ear surgery at San Diego Plastic Surgery Center allows a patient to proudly show their face at any angle with confidence.

How does ear surgery work?
Cosmetic ear surgery is completed using anesthesia, either general or IV sedation. In many patients, the incision is placed near the back of the ear or inside the inner folds. During this procedure, cartilage will be reshaped to create a new contour and natural-looking appearance. It is usual for each ear to be addressed during surgery to make sure they appear balanced. After this, the incisions are safely stitched together with sutures and bandaged so they stay safeguarded for healing.
