Otoplasty costs, just like many plastic surgery procedures, differ from city to city and surgeon to surgeon.

Otoplasty costs
At the time of this answer, Otoplasty in my practice costs $2700. However, as I'm reading the other posts on Real Self, I may need to increase our fee, because I know we do incredible work with ears!
One reason we are able to keep our costs low is that we do our Otoplasty surgery in the office and this avoids the anesthesia and hospital fee.
I'm very proud of the results my patients have received from an Otoplasty surgery. Click on the link below to review before...

Otoplasty cost varies between surgeons and region
Typically, otoplasty costs averages around 2-4k per ear depending on the above. Anesthesia costs can also make it higher. You definitely want to go to someone with a lot of experience with different types of corrections.
