Prominent Ear Surgery

Ear pinning surgery is typically performed at an early age, before children reach school age and experience psychological harm, to enable them to establish healthy relationships with their peers. It is a procedure that can be performed to correct disproportion between the ears, change the position of the ears, and improve their shape.

Prominent Ear Aesthetics – Otoplasty

There is no age limit for undergoing prominent ear surgery, which enhances the harmony between the face and ears and gives the ears a more natural appearance. This procedure can be performed on one or both ears. When performed by qualified plastic surgeons, prominent ear aesthetics can significantly improve a person’s appearance and help them feel more confident in social situations. The operation can be carried out under local or general anesthesia.

During the planning phase, the surgeon evaluates the patient’s general health and age, and determines the type of anesthesia in consultation with the patient and their family.

What Is Prominent Ear Aesthetics (Otoplasty)?

Prominent ear aesthetics, also known as otoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure performed to correct structural deformities in one or both ears and to resolve asymmetry between the ears. It is one of the most commonly performed facial aesthetic procedures.

Although otoplasty can be performed at any age, experts recommend the procedure during childhood. When performed before school age, it can help children avoid potentially hurtful comments or social discomfort, boosting their self-confidence. Once the ear cartilage has completed its development, surgery can be considered for children with prominent ear issues. Adults who were not able to have the surgery earlier in life can also safely undergo the procedure.

How Is Prominent Ear Surgery Performed?

Otoplasty is performed under general or local anesthesia. An incision is made behind the ear, where it is not visible, and the surgeon accesses the cartilage that causes the deformity in the natural fold of the ear. Excess cartilage may be removed or reshaped by folding, and permanent sutures are used to maintain the new shape.

Depending on the extent of the changes, otoplasty typically takes about one hour. After the procedure, a bandage is applied to the ears. The bandage remains in place for approximately five days to help stabilize the shape and position of the ears.

It is normal for swelling to occur in the ears after surgery; the edema usually subsides within a week. In general, otoplasty is considered a safe procedure with a relatively short recovery period.

After Breast Aesthetics

Breast augmentation procedures performed to improve women's physical appearance and achieve ideal levels of breast shape, position, and volume can involve increasing or decreasing breast size, lifting the breasts, and correcting asymmetry issues between the breasts.

Spring Thread Facelift

Thread lift is a non-surgical facial aesthetic procedure performed to reverse sagging, wrinkles, contour deterioration, and loss of elasticity that occur in the skin over time. Among aesthetic procedures with rejuvenating effects, thread lift creates a noticeable change in individuals whose wrinkles are not very deep and whose skin sagging is not excessive. In the thread lift method, which is performed by placing special threads used in surgery under the skin, smooth, barbed, conical, or clawed threads can be used. The type of thread used may vary depending on the extent of the problems in the area to be treated and the need for tightening. The plastic surgeon, who examines the patient's skin structure and evaluates their facial features, will decide which type of thread to use.

Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia)

Gynecomastia affects men's physical appearance and also causes them psychological distress. The fact that breasts are a symbol of femininity and the meaning attributed to them causes men to need breast reduction surgery. Especially in those without any other health problems, surgery is the only option at the appropriate age. In those with accompanying diseases, aesthetic surgery becomes the only choice when medical treatment has been tried but has not yielded successful results.
