Otoplasty/Ear Surgery
Otoplasty, or ear pinning, corrects protruding ears by moving the external ears closer to the head. This minor surgery fixes ears that ‘stick-out’. It typically is performed in children ages 6 to 21, but may also be performed during adulthood. For school-aged children, ridicule from protruding ears and be vicious. A simple office otoplasty can avoid future taunting or cruel joking.
