Let's discuss more about otoplasty and how this procedure is performed👀

1️⃣ What is Otoplasty

Otoplasty is a plastic surgery procedure that aims to correct various abnormalities in the ears, such as protrusion, lack of symmetry, size that is too large, or size that is too small.

2️⃣ Ear Shape Issues and Otoplasty Procedures

Several issues that can be considered if you are going to undergo otoplasty:

  • Lop ear: the tip of the earlobe folds downwards and forwards

  • Cupped ear: the ear size is very small

  • Shell ear: the indentation on the outer edge of the ear and the fold of the earlobe are missing.

Procedures that can be performed:

  • Protruding Ear Correction: This procedure is performed by making a small incision behind the ear, then shaping or changing the cartilage into the desired position so that the ear does not protrude.

  • Thickening the Ear: Otoplasty can also be performed by adding fat tissue to ears that are too small, thereby improving the size and proportion of the ears.

  • Reducing Ear Size: If the ears are too large, the surgeon will remove part of the surrounding tissue and reshape the ears to make them smaller.

3️⃣ Ideal Ear Shape

  1. The most appropriate aspect ratio is 4:7

  2. The top of the ear should be positioned between the upper eyelid and the tip of the nose

  3. Having more left-right symmetry makes the ears look more ideal

  4. Facial features will be more proportional when the ears are set slightly back by about 8~10 degrees.

  5. The antihelix and ear cover must be visible.
