There are several types of ear surgeries. Some correct certain congenital defects, and depending on your insurance carrier, the procedure may in fact be partially or totally covered by insurance. Some surgeries, however, will fall under the "not medical necessary" category. Among the uncovered services, Earlobe modification following facelift surgery, cosmetic otoplasty and earlobe reductions are some of the more common ones. Prices on these procedures may vary depending on whether general anesthesia is used, as is often the case in the pediatric population undergoing surgical otoplasties, in which case a surgical facility fee by the hospital also applies. Prices for these procedures described can also vary if it is a first time surgery or if it constitutes a revision procedure, but they can range from $2,000 to under $10,000.
