Protruding Ear Surgery (Otoplasty)
Protruding ears are ears that stick out more than normal from the head, making them highly noticeable. While this condition does not cause health issues, it can lead to aesthetic concerns and self-confidence problems. Protruding ear surgery (otoplasty) reshapes the ears to be more proportional, symmetrical, and harmonious with the facial features. Performed under local or general anesthesia, this procedure provides long-lasting and natural results.

How is Protruding Ear Surgery Performed?
During protruding ear surgery, the surgeon reshapes the ear cartilage and positions the ears closer to the head. Local anesthesia is usually used, but in children or special cases, general anesthesia may be preferred.
Procedure Duration: 45 minutes to 1.5 hours
Pain Level: Mild discomfort may occur after surgery, but it can be easily managed with simple painkillers.
Step-by-Step Procedure
Anesthesia Application: Adults receive local anesthesia, while children may receive general anesthesia, ensuring patients do not feel pain during the surgery.
Incision: The surgeon makes a small incision behind the ear, hidden within a natural fold, allowing easy access to the cartilage and soft tissues.
Cartilage Shaping: The surgeon reshapes the ear cartilage to achieve a natural aesthetic form, removing excess cartilage or adding folds with sutures when necessary.
Fixation with Sutures: The new shape is secured with special surgical stitches, maintaining the form and providing stability during healing.
Closure and Bandaging: The incision is closed with esthetic sutures, and a special pressure bandage is applied to reduce swelling and protect the new shape.

Aesthetic Appearance: Ears look more natural and proportional.

Harmony with Facial Features: Ears become fully integrated with facial aesthetics.

Protruding Ear Surgery Techniques
Protruding ear surgery is performed using different techniques depending on the patient’s ear structure, cartilage firmness, and aesthetic expectations. Choosing the right technique is crucial for achieving a natural appearance and long-lasting results.
4. Combined Technique
In some patients, cartilage shaping alone may not be sufficient. Therefore, the surgeon applies both cartilage thinning and stitch techniques together. This approach provides effective and long-lasting results in complex protruding ear cases.
Advantages: Provides effective and permanent results for difficult and complex cases.
Ideal For: Patients with both firm cartilage and a pronounced ear protrusion angle.
3. Minimally Invasive Protruding Ear Correction
In this technique, the surgeon uses laser or microsurgical methods to minimize the incision size. This approach reduces both the operation time and the recovery period.
Advantages: Causes less tissue trauma, faster healing, and minimal swelling and bruising.
Ideal For: Patients with mild deformities or those seeking minor aesthetic adjustments.
2. Stitch Technique
In this method, the surgeon reshapes the ear fold using special sutures without making an incision in the cartilage. Since the sutures are placed behind the ear, no visible scars remain. Additionally, the recovery period after surgery is relatively short.
Advantages: Minimally invasive and allows for quick recovery.
Ideal For: Patients with soft cartilage and mild protruding ear deformities.
1. Classic Cartilage Shaping Technique
In this technique, the surgeon makes a small incision behind the ear to access the cartilage. Using special surgical instruments, the cartilage is thinned and shaped into the desired aesthetic form. Excess cartilage is removed if necessary. Finally, the ear is positioned closer to the head and secured with sutures, resulting in a natural and long-lasting appearance.
Advantages: Provides permanent and natural results.
Ideal For: Patients with firm cartilage and pronounced protruding ears.
