Cryptotia Correction Buried Ear Surgery
Cryptotia correction is a surgery to fix an ear that looks like it's "buried" under the skin of the head, often because the top part of the ear cartilage isn't fully developed. This procedure frees the ear so it can stand out normally from the head. It helps the ear look more natural and can improve how glasses or masks fit.
