Otoplasty Before & After Case 1098

This 24 year old asked Dr. Parker to improve her protruding ears. Dr. Parker explained the anatomic reasons for the ears being protruding and how they could be corrected surgically. At surgery, which he performed under local anesthesia, Dr. Parker made inconspicuous incisions in the crease behind the patient’s ears. This allowed him to reshape the ear cartilage into a more desirable and aesthetic shape with carefully inserted permanent sutures. The patient recovered quickly and well from the procedure. The patient loves the natural look of her ears which now have the shape she desired.
