How long after a breast reduction before I can get a dog ear corrected?

I recommend approximately 6 months before any revisions.  When my patients have dog ears, I correct them for free under local anesthesia.  However, if I had a patient who need a dog ear corrected, it would be less than $1,000 (both) or $500 (one).Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Hello and thank you for your recent question!  I would wait to revise any surgery until after 6 months.  As far as pricing that can range per practice and I would recommend a consult with a surgeon of your choice that way they could give you a more accurate fee.  Best of luck !

Small dog-ears may be managed conservatively and observed. Wait six months for the appearance to diminish. Massage and steroid injections may help. A minor scar revision can always be performed in the office setting under local anesthetic. The excision makes the incision and resultant scar a little longer but it is usually worth it for the smoother contour. Your original PS would probably do it for free or a minimal amount.  Go to some consultations with board certified PS in your geographical area to determine the cost.
