EAR AESTHETICS

Many congenital or acquired deformities that require ear aesthetic surgery can be encountered in the ear. Such as the congenital complete or partial absence of the ear, extra cartilage protrusions around the auricle, the ear being shrunken like a crumpled paper or the loss of part or all of the ear as a result of an accident… People's ears appear different from normal, affecting their self-esteem and reducing their quality of life. Prominent ear appearance or larger than normal earlobe are usually congenital conditions. Ear aesthetic operations are performed by surgeons very easily, the healing process is fast and they give good results for the patients.

The main element for ear aesthetics, the outer ear, namely the auricle, is the part of the ear anatomy that can be seen from the outside. Other parts of the ear that are not visible from the outside are the middle ear and inner ear. Although the function of these invisible parts of the ear is very important, the auricle has little effect on hearing. However, the shape of the outer ear can be an important source of stress for individuals. Ear aesthetics usually starts with the removal of a spindle-shaped piece of skin from behind the auricle. The parts to be stitched are marked to create folds. The cartilage is rasped and brought to a consistency to be curled in appropriate areas. The angle between the ear and the head is narrowed with the sutures between the ear base and the skull bone membrane. The ear canopy is shaped with stitches placed in previously planned areas. In some ear structures, it is observed that the earlobe is expected to turn backwards with the pull of the auricle after the auricle is folded, but it does not turn, even more clearly, it remains forward. The surgical incision made for ear aesthetics is at the back of the auricle. This scar is not visible when the head is viewed from behind after ear aesthetics. However, it can be seen by pulling out the ear. This scar gradually decreases in 6 to 12 months and becomes almost uncertain.

It is a condition that can disturb people of all ages when the ears look too large when viewed from the front, which is called prominent ear among the people. There are many people who experience this problem, men or women, without realizing it. Ears reach adult size at the age of 6. For this reason, it is recommended that prominent ear surgery be performed preferably before primary school, as an exception to other aesthetics. Thus, this problem is avoided without being exposed to criticism from schoolmates. You can get rid of prominent ear disorder with a very safe and simple intervention. Ear aesthetic surgery is mostly performed in the hospital under general anesthesia in young children and does not require hospitalization afterwards. The desired shape to be given to the ear with an incision made behind the ear is made with some suture techniques. Depending on the condition of the case, cartilage excision is made if necessary and a natural aesthetic ear is tried to be obtained. After the operation, the incision behind the ear is closed with a suture.After ear aesthetics; The probability of developing an infection in cartilage tissue is very difficult. This situation is further reduced with the measures taken. When the stitches used for the patient are suitable and of good quality, there is no opening and deformation in the ear. Hematoma (blood accumulation) is not observed when good bleeding control and postoperative good dressing and follow-up are performed. Patients with prominent ears are usually happier the closer the ear is to the head.
