Ear Surgery
Otoplasty can be performed in a Parsian Beauty hospital or an outpatient surgery center. Depending on the skill of the surgeon and the complexity of the procedure, it can take between 1 and 3 hours. Adults and older children may receive local anesthesia with a sedative during the procedure. General anesthesia is usually recommended for younger children.
Although the specific surgical technique used depends on the type of otoplasty you have, in general, ear cosmetic surgery involves the following steps:
- First, an incision is made behind the ear or inside the ear folds.
- Then, the surgeon manipulates the ear tissue, which may include removing a portion of cartilage or skin, bending and shaping the cartilage with permanent stitches, or grafting cartilage to the ear.
- Finally, the incisions are closed with fine stitches.

- After otoplasty surgery, your ears will be bandaged for extra protection and support. For this reason, you may feel some discomfort and itching. Be sure to keep your bandage clean and dry. Take painkillers and antibiotics as prescribed by your doctor. If you are taking painkillers and your discomfort continues to increase, contact your doctor immediately.
- Avoid sleeping on your side to prevent pressure on your ears. Also, try not to rub or apply too much force to the incision site. It is best to consider wearing button-down shirts or shirts with loose collars for a while.
- Your doctor will remove your bandages about a week after your otoplasty surgery. Your ears will likely be swollen and red, and you may need to wear an elastic headband to cover your ears at night for a few weeks. This will help you avoid moving your ears around as you roll over in bed.
