Hello, I had my otoplasty done 3 years ago (in 2020) where my ears were pinned back and an anti-helix was formed. A few days ago, I noticed a weird bludging on the anti-helix, and i cant tell why it is there. I recall experiencing pain sometimes when i sleep on that side but it usually resolves immediately if i change the position. normally It doesnt pain if i would touch or press it the area. Any advice would be much appreciated!
I've just had otoplasty surgery in poland and wanted to know is there Anything I can do to help speed up recovery or aid in recovery eg multi vitamins, amino, would eating a certain diet help? And can I ice my ears to reduce swelling
I had an Otoplasty 6 days ago and while the surrounding areas of my ears are healing really well, I am slightly concerned about the swelling in the concha bowl area of my ear. I am seeing my doctor tomorrow so I will ask him then but I would also like other opinions as well. I know it's early and much of my swelling will be taken care of in the next few weeks but I haven't seen many people with this much swelling in the concha bowl post op. Thank you.
i had earfold procedure soon 2 weeks ago. im not very happy with the result of my right ear because the sharp corner of the clip is highly visible. my doctor just said its probably the swealing, but he barely even looked at it. im very sad about this because i put alot of trust in him and he doesnt seem to care much. now im wondering, can this really just be a swealing? is it possible to replace the earfold? would it be the same procedure?
Dear doctors, I am 1.5 weeks post otoplasty. It seems like my ears are sticking further and further every day. I feel like immediately after the surgery they looked perfect, but now they are almost back to the previous position. There is still swelling, and the scar scabs are still in place. Is it possible that when they are healed, they will become closer to the head? Or will a correction be required? Thank you very much in advance!
I had otoplasty 2weeks ago,im 100% happy with the 1 ear as its shape is normal and pinned back great, however i have concers for this ear if you look at the top of helix on the ear there is no natural curv its almost like the helix is flat where its supposed to be folded. Looks like a peace of my ear missing, is this just due to swelling causing the skin to pull it tight? Will the helix fold over like a normal ear and look like the other ear? Aslo how and why has this happened? Will it change?
2.3 weeks post op otoplasty Excellent aesthetic result but Im concerned my swelling upper part of ear hasnt settled. Looks like hematoma? Same swelling from the start but I thought would have settled by now Still very tender and itchy. Thank you
Hello, 3 weeks ago, I had an otoplasty (ear pinning) surgery. I am mostly happy with the results, however I feel that my ears still protrude on top a bit. I would like opinions on my results so far. Will my ears flatten closer to my head once more swelling and bruising go down over time? I've attached before and after photos. The photo taken in the car is today, 3 weeks post surgery. The photos taken indoors was me before I had surgery.
I was having an auricle hematoma and my dr used the button technique to apply good compression on the ear But now three day post operation and i still have pain and the antihilix is swelling. Do i got Perichondritis? Thanks
Surely the swelling should be subsiding not still going after 6 weeks. My ears have just started protruding more. I was so happy with them. But today feel like they are sticking out more than normal and swelled. My right ear even more than my left. Could it be the heat causing this as it is a hot day today? They feel like a very slight burning sensation. I can not lie on them still as it's uncomfortable and still wear a band at night. My helix and anti helix is swollen, aswell as the back.
