The Otoplasty (Ear Surgery) Procedure: What to Expect

Step 1: Anesthesia

Medications are administered for your comfort. Dr. Valdez and the anesthesiologist will discuss the best choice for you, which may include regional anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.

Step 2: The Incision

Dr. Valdez typically makes a discreet incision on the back surface of the ear, or within its natural folds, to ensure any resulting scar is well-hidden.

Step 3 – Reshape Ear Cartlage

Through this incision, Dr. Valdez will carefully reshape the ear cartilage. This may involve folding the cartilage into a more desired position, removing excess cartilage, or using internal sutures to secure the ear in its new, more aesthetic form.

Step 4 – Closing the Incisions

Once the desired shape and position are achieved, the incisions are meticulously closed with external sutures. These sutures help to maintain the new ear contour during the initial healing phase.

Step 5 – See the Results

Immediately after the procedure, your ears will be protected with bandages. While some swelling and discomfort are normal, the improved shape of your ears will be apparent once dressings are removed, with full results visible as swelling subsides over the following weeks.
