The Ideal
Candidate

Individuals may opt for an Otoplasty for a variety of reasons. Prominent or asymmetrical ears can often lead to self-consciousness and social discomfort, especially in children who may face teasing and bullying. Adults, too, might seek this procedure to enhance their appearance and boost their confidence. Children and adults in good health with realistic expectations about the outcome of otoplasty are good candidates for the surgery. Otoplasty is typically performed on children over 8 when the ear cartilage is stable enough to allow correction.

A successful Otoplasty procedure hinges on several factors. Firstly, a thorough consultation is essential to understand the patient’s concerns and desired outcomes. Dr. Leonard Grossman’s clinic prides itself on providing comprehensive pre-operative assessments to tailor the procedure to each individual’s unique needs. Using innovative techniques and state-of-the-art equipment ensures that the reshaping of the ears is precise and achieves the most natural-looking results.

However, certain factors can impair recovery and affect the final results. Several post-operative care instructions must be carefully followed, including avoiding strenuous activities for 5 days and protecting the ears from intentional or accidental injury. Smoking and poor nutrition can also impede the healing process and potentially compromise the results. At Dr. Leonard Grossman’s clinic, patients receive detailed guidance on how to care for themselves post-surgery, ensuring that they achieve the best possible outcome from their Otoplasty procedure.
