Otoplasty in Iran

Otoplasty is a type of process which is mostly done among children and teenagers, but nowadays some adults are volunteering for having it. Children who volunteer for otoplasty surgery should be five years old or older, so the ear’s cartilage is stable enough for operation, as the ear has achieved 80% of its adult size by this time. Teenagers and adults who are good candidates include healthy patients who do not smoke, and who have realistic expectations for the outcome of their operation.

Otoplasty is a safe and effective procedure in patients who have addressed large or protruding ears. Despite all, like all surgical processes, there are complications that can happen, such as hematoma, infection, abnormal contours, over-correction, under-correction, and exposed sutures.

The length of your stay in Iran for otoplasty surgery is about 10 days ( 2 days before surgery and 7 days after the surgery). However, this depends on the situation of the patients and the speed of your recovery.

Otoplasty mostly creates permanent changes in your ears. If you follow your plastic surgeon’s instructions after you get this operation, your ears should maintain their novel appearance for your lifelong. So the outcome of the surgery lasts forever.

Otoplasty also improves the shape of the ear to correct the appearance of protruding ears and specialized techniques may also enhance deformities of the ear. This is why otoplasty operations have a 96% worth-it rating on RealSelf. So if you are not satisfied with how your ears look and it affects your self-confidence, try otoplasty.

Depending on the case, ear surgery usually consists of three or four steps. In most cases, otoplasty is started with a local anaesthetic and sedation. However, this might differ if the patient is too young or has special conditions. Next, the area behind the ear is incised so the surgeon can access the cartilage and get it in shape, enhancing the overall look, including symmetry and size. The third step is done if the ears need to be repositioned, called ear pinning. Finally, the surgeon will close the incisions and wrap the area in bandages, so the healing process begins.
