F.A.Q.
Frequently Asked Questions About Otoplasty Surgery
¿From what age can otoplasty be performed?
Otoplasty can be performed from the age of 6, when the ears have already reached almost their final size. It is ideal for children who suffer from teasing or insecurity due to the shape of their ears. It is also common in adolescents and adults who desire an aesthetic improvement. Age is not a limiting factor if the patient is in good health.
Is it a painful surgery?
Otoplasty is performed under local or general anesthesia, so there is no pain during the procedure. In the postoperative period, a slight discomfort or feeling of pressure may be felt, but it is easily controlled with analgesics. Most patients return to their normal activities within a few days. The pain is minimal and temporary.
¿Does the surgery leave visible scars??
No, the incisions are made on the back of the ear or in natural folds, which makes the scars hidden. Over time, these scars become practically imperceptible. It is essential to follow the postoperative instructions for good healing. The aesthetic results are very discreet.
¿How long does the recovery take??
The initial recovery takes between 5 and 7 days, although it is advisable to avoid intense physical activities for at least 3 weeks. An elastic band or bandage should be worn to maintain the new position of the ears. The swelling gradually decreases, and the results stabilize within the first month. Full recovery from otoplasty typically takes about 4 to 6 weeks.
¿The results of otoplasty are permanent.?
Yes, the results are permanent in most cases. Once the shape or position of the ears is corrected, they are not expected to return to their previous state. However, it is important to follow the indicated postoperative care to ensure an optimal and lasting result. Patient satisfaction is usually very high.
