Ear Surgeries

Ear surgery which is also known as otoplasty can advance the shape and proportion of the ear. Any deformity in the ear structure from birth can be rectified by otoplasty. This procedure can be done to treat deformed ears caused by any injury. 

Ear surgery offers a natural shape and also brings balance and proportion to the ears and face. Correction of ear deformities improves the appearance and self-esteem of a person. If distending or disfigured ears are the reason for embarrassment for you or your kid, you might think about ear surgery in Delhi with Shobhit Aesthetics.

What is Ear Surgeries?

Otoplasty is also known as cosmetic ear surgery. It’s performed on the auricle which is an external part of the ear and easily visible that involves the cartilage folds in the skin. Auricles develop before birth and keep developing after birth.

If the auricle doesn’t develop as expected, you can consider otoplasty in Delhi to correct the size and shape of your ears.

Ears that stick out can be a concentration for prodding, particularly for youngsters. This prodding can negatively affect their confidence.

During the initial two months of life, guardians can have their child’s ears reshaped with molds. Following two months, the main long-lasting method for diminishing how far your ears stick out is to have a surgical procedure.

Types of Otoplasty

There are three main types of otoplasty surgery performed by Dr. Shobhit Gupta are ear pinning, ear enlargement, and ear reduction. :

Ear enlargement: – Ear enlargement surgery is for people with small ears or ears that haven’t developed properly. Without surgery, no medical treatment or exercise makes your ears bigger, Otoplasty surgery is the only option to increase the size of the ear.

Ear Pinning: – Ear pinning includes bringing the ears nearer to the head. This surgery is performed on people whose ears are prominently sticking out from the side of the head. During pinnaplasty, the surgeon will make a small incision behind each ear to remove some part of cartilage to create the desired shape.  

Ear Reduction: –  In-ear reduction, the surgeons use to determine macrotia – unusual enlargement of the auricle. Whenever your ears are bigger than expected, this is the sort of otoplasty you might decide to decrease the size of your ears.

How You Should Prepare For Otoplasty?

Follow the instructions of your surgeon by stopping any blood-thinning medications and supplements. 

With the child patient, you must inform the school administrations in advance, as the healing process may take a few days.

Quit smoking if you smoke regularly for at least a few weeks before the ear surgery.

Discuss with your surgeon about the complications and risks.

Arrange someone for help after the surgery as the patient can feel dizzy because of the anesthesia

Strictly follow a healthy diet and keep yourself hydrated as much you can

What is the Procedure of Otoplasty?

In the first step, the patient will be given local or general anesthesia. Then the incisions will be made on the backside of the ear. Incisions can be made in front of the ear totally depending on the condition and through these incisions, the surgeon reshapes misshapen cartilages. Stitches will be made after the ear surgery in Delhi. 

The surgery takes 1-2 hours under general anesthesia or local anesthesia. This is a short duration surgery and then the patient will be discharged on the same day. The incisions are made behind the ear and cannot be seen. The incisions which are made on the front are made into folds and cannot be seen. Bandages are put on the treated part after the surgery to support the ears to heal in the new position. 

The results can be seen immediately after the otoplasty or ear surgery. Complicated surgeries take some time to show the results. Patients must follow the instructions of the surgeon during the recovery period to avoid any kind of complications. And if you are worried about otoplasty price, Shobhit Aesthetics provides the best prices.

Recovery After Otoplasty?

After the otoplasty surgery in Delhi, the patient may feel discomfort which is normal and can be controlled by medications.

The scars are fully hidden and go away after a few months. The patient needs to take proper rest for a week and the full recovery can take a few weeks, and the results are permanent.
