Otoplasty, a highly effective procedure, focuses on correcting multiple auricular deformities that can affect a person’s self-esteem and confidence. One of the most common concerns is the angle between the ear and the scalp, which can lead to the so-called “screen ears.”

The ideal time to consider Otoplasty is during the first years of life, when the constant growth of the ears provides an opportunity to correct the deformity without interfering with their natural development. This early intervention can prevent the emotional impact of peer teasing. However, Otoplasty can also be performed in adulthood.

Otoplasty seeks not only to correct excessive projection of the ear, but also to address the depth of the concha and other aesthetic aspects. Surgical approaches vary, generally involving incisions in the back of the ear to access the auricular cartilage. This allows modification of the cartilage through relaxation incisions and fixation points.

The intervention aims to achieve a balance between the position of the ear and the skull, allowing a margin of separation that ensures comfort in cleaning and wearing glasses.
