Protruding ears are a common anatomical condition that occurs as a result of the ear cartilages not folding sufficiently and the angle between the ear and the head being wide. While this situation can cause self-confidence problems, especially in childhood, it can also negatively affect social life in adults. Protruding ear surgery allows the cartilage to be reshaped and the ears to have a natural appearance through small incisions made behind the ear.
Surgery can generally be performed at any age, starting from the age of 5-6. It is performed under general anesthesia in children and mostly under local anesthesia in adults. An elastic bandage is applied to the ears for the first few days after the procedure, and then the use of tennis tape is recommended. The healing process is generally comfortable; Most patients can return to school or work within a week. This procedure, which offers natural and permanent aesthetic results, increases the person’s self-confidence and positively affects the quality of life.
