The incision-less Otoplasty is a very good technique for teens. It is useful in properly selected individuals. However, the technique is only as good as the surgeon. it should also be kept in mind that it is not the technique that is important but the result. It is best to consult an experienced ear surgeon to see what technique is best for your situation.
The best method for you depends completely on each ear. In our practice, when patients present for an otoplasty they usually have two different ears. Their ears may vary in shape, position, and size. If you are only interested in changing the contour of the ear or the rim, and incisionless otoplasty may be all that's necessary. However, if you would like your ears set back, a small incision behind your ear in the crease where your ear meets your scalp is necessary.
