Are There Surgeons Who Specialize In Macrotia Surgery?

September 6, 2011
Asked By:Ear Envy in Sacramento, CA

I have a severe case of macrotia. My ears lack entirely that lovely curl of cartilage that give normal ears their shape. Mine don't have even a hint of it. All my life I have lived in fear of exposing my very large ears (getting my hair cut is excruciatingly embarrassing). The only website I found that discusses macrotia surgery belonged to a surgeon who recently retired. Is macrotia surgery a specialty? Where can I find out more about the surgery, what to ask a surgeon, cost, etc.?
