What Is Otoplasty?

Otoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the shape, position, or proportion of the ears. It is most commonly performed to correct prominent or protruding ears, ear asymmetry, or deformities caused by birth conditions or injury. Otoplasty is often chosen by patients who want a more balanced facial appearance and greater confidence in their profile.

Rather than changing hearing function, otoplasty focuses on enhancing the external appearance of the ears. At Estelite, otoplasty procedures are carefully planned to achieve natural-looking results that are in harmony with the patient’s facial features.

How Does Otoplasty Work?

An otoplasty procedure usually involves:

• Reshaping the ear cartilage
• Repositioning the ears closer to the head
• Correcting asymmetry or irregular contours
• Improving the overall balance and proportion of the ears
• Careful closure of the incision for better healing
• Post-operative care and recovery support

By refining the structure and position of the ears, otoplasty helps create a more symmetrical and harmonious appearance.

What Can Otoplasty Improve?

Otoplasty can help improve:

• Prominent or protruding ears
• Ear asymmetry
• Irregular ear shape or contour
• Ear deformities present from birth
• Changes in ear appearance caused by injury
• Facial harmony and profile balance
• Self-confidence related to appearance

It is ideal for patients who want a more refined ear shape and a more proportionate overall facial look.
