Schedule your appointment today
Otoplasty, commonly referred to as ear pinning, is a surgical procedure to reshape and reposition the ears closer to the head. It addresses concerns such as prominent ears, asymmetry, or deformities, creating a more harmonious balance with the face. This procedure is tailored to each patient’s needs, offering subtle, natural-looking results.

What Is Earlobe Repair?

Earlobe repair is a surgical solution to restore the appearance and function of damaged, stretched, or torn earlobes. Commonly performed to fix issues caused by heavy earrings, trauma, or gauging, this procedure smooths and reshapes the earlobes for a natural look.

Who Can Benefit from Ear Pinning or Earlobe Repair?

These procedures are ideal for:

Children or adults with prominent or uneven ears

Individuals seeking to correct stretched, torn, or gauged earlobes

Patients looking to enhance facial balance and symmetry

Anyone who feels self-conscious about the appearance of their ears or earlobes

How Are These Procedures Performed?

Both ear pinning and earlobe repair are outpatient procedures performed with precision and care:

Ear Pinning

Small incisions are made behind the ear to reshape cartilage and position the ears closer to the head.

Earlobe Repair

Earlobe repair is a surgical solution to restore the appearance and function of damaged, stretched, or torn earlobes. Commonly performed to fix issues caused by heavy earrings, trauma, or gauging, this procedure smooths and reshapes the earlobes for a natural look.

What Is the Recovery Like?

Recovery from both procedures is straightforward and relatively quick. Patients may experience mild swelling or tenderness, which subsides within 1-2 weeks. Protective dressings or headbands are often worn to support healing. Most patients resume normal activities within a week, with full results visible after healing.
