What is an Otoplasty?
Otoplasty reshapes and repositions ears that stick out, are unusually large, or are misshapen. Working through an incision hidden behind the ear, the surgeon reshapes the cartilage and places permanent sutures that hold the ear closer to the head and recreate the natural fold. The change is visible as soon as the dressing comes off.
It is a same-day procedure, local anesthetic with sedation for most adults, general anesthesia for children. Ears reach close to adult size early in childhood, so surgeons often consider otoplasty from around age five, and many families choose to do it before a child starts school. There is no upper age limit.
It is not earlobe repair, which is a separate minor office procedure for torn or stretched lobes, and it is not medical ear surgery for hearing or infection, which belongs to an ENT. Cosmetic ear pinning is its own procedure with its own price.

What to ask your provider
- Is the shape issue in the fold of the cartilage, the bowl of the ear, or both?
- Local anesthetic with sedation, or general, and why for my case?
- How do you guard against over-correction, so the ears do not look pinned?
- How long will I wear the headband at night, and what happens if I skip it?
- What is your plan if one ear settles differently from the other?
- I scar with keloids, how does that change my risk behind the ear?
Frequently asked questions
What age can this be done?
Ears reach close to adult size early in childhood, so surgeons will often consider otoplasty from around age five, and many families do it before a child starts school. There is no upper limit. Adults have the procedure regularly, often under local anesthetic with sedation rather than general anesthesia.
Will my ears stick out again over time?
The correction is designed to be permanent, but some relapse is possible, particularly in the first weeks while everything heals. This is why surgeons insist on a protective headband at night for several weeks. Following that instruction is the single biggest thing you control in the outcome.
Where is the scar?
In the crease behind the ear, where it is hidden against the head and not visible from the front. It is usually a fine line once healed. If you have a history of keloid scarring, tell your surgeon before booking, because that changes the plan.
