Ear aesthetics includes plastic surgery operations to correct deformities in the ears from birth or due to trauma.
Prominent ear is the increase in the angle between the ear and the head. The forward curve of the ears has increased, so the ears appear prominent and large from the front. Prominent ear is not a health problem, but is considered an aesthetic problem. It can cause a lack of self-confidence in people who care about this problem too much.
It can be done to healthy people who have a cap ear problem and want to have it fixed. In particular, it can negatively affect the social and psychological development of children. That's why pre-school surgery is needed. 80% of ear development is completed around 6 years of age. Therefore, prominent ear surgery can be performed at the age of six and after with the consent of the parents.
Prominent ear correction surgery is performed with general anesthesia (by sleeping) in children and regional anesthesia (awake) in adults, but general anesthesia is preferred for patient and operation comfort. With prominent ear correction surgery, natural ear folds are created. The ear is brought closer to the head as usual. The prominent ear correction operation takes about an hour.
The surgical steps are as follows:
It is usually comfortable after prominent ear surgery. There may be mild pain that can be controlled with medication. You can go home the same day. The trace is behind the ear; it is invisible from the front and becomes obscure over time.
Ears are checked the next day. The ears are kept bandaged for five or seven days. After a week the adults can start their work at the children's school. It is recommended to use tennis tape for three weeks. Ears should be protected from pulling and impacts for a month and a half.
After the prominent ear operation, you should not lie on your ears for two weeks.
After ear surgery, the ears are wrapped with a special bandage. This bandage has a certain pressure and its functions are important. Printed bandage prevents possible bleeding. It also allows the corrected ears to heal as desired. For this reason, bandage use and doctor control are issues that should be considered after prominent ear surgery.
The best part of the prominent ear operation is that the operation is permanent and natural. The results are often incomprehensible.
