Prominent ear correction, also known as otoplasty, is a surgical procedure to correct ears that stick out more than normal due to underdeveloped folds, enlarged cartilage, or excessive ear projection. This condition often causes psychological distress, especially in children. Otoplasty reshapes the ear cartilage and repositions the ears closer to the head, creating a more natural appearance and restoring facial harmony. The procedure is safe, effective, and offers lifelong results.
Ideal Candidates: Children or adults with protruding ears caused by undeveloped ear folds, enlarged conchal cartilage, or overall ear asymmetry. Ideal candidates should be healthy and seeking permanent correction for improved appearance and confidence.
Estimated Cost: $2,500 – $5,000
