I have heard stories from friends who have had this procedure and read online that an otoplasty is one of the most painful cosmetic procedures, particularly after surgery. I am just wondering whether or not this is true. I find it difficult to believe as i know that many children below the age of 10 get this procedure done.
Actually otoplasty recovery is fairly benign. Otoplasty is s very common procedure in children and adults to help "pin" the ears back and improve their natural shape.
Good Luck.
I had cartilage excised from both of my ears and had the ears attached with permanent sutures to the head. My surgeon said that I should wear the headband for a month and I've been wearing it 24/7 for 3 weeks, with the exception of a handful of days. Do you think I could switch to night time wear only at this point without affecting the healing or the results?
After otoplasty, it is important to wear the headband to protect your ears. Without having you as a patient, it is impossible and also inappropriate for us to commend on or contradict what your surgeon suggested. If you are having a problem with your headband, then you should address this with your surgeon. If you post before and after pictures, we may be able to commend further.
Good Luck.
average ear surgery cost
Otoplasty costs, just like many plastic surgery procedures, differ from city to city and surgeon to surgeon. You may want to check with your insurance company to see if this procedure is covered - however it is usually just covered for children. Otoplasty takes 1 to 2 hours and is performed as an outpatient procedure.
Good Luck.
