For most otoplasty (ear pinning) surgeries, post-operative pain is often not too bad. You will frequently only need over-the-counter medicines and anti-inflammatory medications to treat the pain. Nonetheless, there are hazards linked with any surgical operation. Thus, depending on the details of your otoplasty, your relative pain may be larger or worse.

Who is a good candidate for otoplasty?

Here at Mediranco, we will go over your medical history, check the size, shape, and location of your ears, go over what to expect in detail, and address any questions you may have during your initial Otoplasty appointment. Here are some fundamentals about who makes a suitable candidate for this otoplasty operation before you visit your surgeon:

Individuals Who Are Five Years Old or Older

The auricle is 90% of its adult size by the age of five. Someone might make a decent candidate at this time. Your child’s ears may seem abnormally small or huge throughout the first year or two of life. Your child’s pediatrician may have also told you that your child’s ears have a structural problem that was present at birth.

Nevertheless, this process won’t work until the auricle is practically finished growing. The earliest opportunity for a corrective operation is when your child is five years old, despite the fact that you might desire to have it done as soon as feasible.

Individuals Under the Age of 66

It is occasionally allowed for patients older than 65 to undergo this operation. This is due to how crucial having good general health is. But if you’re in good health and above 65, you’re probably a suitable candidate for this treatment.

Mediranco surgeons seek for someone who is generally healthy, maintains a healthy lifestyle, and is interested in ear augmentation, pinning, or reduction, to put it bluntly.

Those Who Don’t Smoke

A non-smoker is the ideal candidate for otoplasty. It is imperative that you abstain from nicotine use for the six weeks before or after your operation if you smoke. We advise smokers who are thinking about having this operation to start quitting two months in advance. This, gives users two weeks to gradually cut back on their nicotine use and six weeks to completely abstain from it. It’s crucial to be nicotine-free at the time of your treatment because this medication raises blood pressure. The effects of general anesthesia on your body are consequently impacted by this. Moreover, it prevents your skin from healing.
