I feel sick I didn't ask more questions like exactly how far back and why am I not wearing bandages?? Every site I've been to there are tons of logical reasons why you wear bandages my surgeon says it's fine you don't need them, so far they are occasionally painful it's been 5 days and his office told me it's fine to wash etc I don't feel right about this, please advise
Answer: Bandaid Hello, dressing are a surgeons preference. I used ointment on the incisions only and a headband 24hours a day for 3 days then at night for 2 weeks. Good Luck.

Answer: Otoplasty and no bandages? Thank you for your question and I am sorry to hear that you are worried after your surgery. The dressings after surgery that doctors use are dependent on the type of procedure performed and are designed to minimize any additional risks of trauma to the ear. Though I normally use bandages and head wraps to avoid the ears being pulled or tugged on, your procedure may not have required it. Please voice your concerns with your surgeon, they ultimately want you to have an excellent outcome and can provide you with reassurance that all is well.

Answer: Aftercare post Otoplasty Many thanks for submitting your question.The need for bandages post Otoplasty is variable and will depend on the surgeons preference and the extent of surgery performed.I usually recommend that my patients shower and wash their hair as normal and wear a head bandage at night for 2- 4 weeks post surgery. You can purchase just a normal head band and wear this at night will avoid your ears being pulled in your sleep.I hope this helps.

Answer: Otoplasty and no bandages? If you were operated on with the stitch method, you don’t require a bandage. If you we were operated on with a traditional method, your surgeon must decide how long you must wear a bandage.
