I feel like I've been conscious aware of my ears my whole life. Been thinking about getting otoplasty for 5 years now! But my family keep saying it's perfectly fine. They think I shouldn't change what God made. My response is I'm not I'm just pushing it back a lil but I understand what they're saying. I just need advice? I want more confidence but I don't want to buy it. I dont know, I want to really bad then again I don't? If I do, Prominent ear or both ears?

Answer: Otoplasty worth it? When something bothers you for that long it would be worth visiting with 2 or 3 plastic surgeons who do a lot of Otoplasty and see what your options are and what results you can expect. Making an informed decision is always best. You may change your mind or decide to have this done. Most patients find the recovery is much less sore than they thought it would be. Because you do not have hair covering your ears, you will have redness and swelling for a few weeks that will be visible. Most men find the tradeoff in the change they can see to be worth it. Best Wishes.

Answer: Otoplasty candidate Only the patient can answer the question as to whether or not they wish to proceed with a cosmetic procedure to pin the ears back. An otoplasty procedure involves recreating the anti-helical fold and tucking the ear back closer to the head. Either one or both ears can be performed, depending upon the patient's desires. In our practice we perform most otoplasty procedures under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure.
