Otoplasty is a cosmetic ear surgery that can change the shape, size, and position of your ears. Some people have ears that stick out too far from their heads, while others may have ears that are not shaped correctly or are too large for their face. This can often be a cause of psychological trauma for both children and adults.
At Cozmo Bliss in Bangalore, we understand that for some people, their ears can be a source of insecurity and low self-esteem. That’s why we offer otoplasty surgery, which helps to bring harmony between the face and ears for a more aesthetically pleasing look. Even minor corrections with ear plastic surgery can make a world of difference for patients in terms of confidence and self-esteem. It’s important to note that otoplasty surgery is purely for cosmetic purposes and will not alter the hearing ability in any way.
Otoplasty Surgery Procedure
Otoplasty in Bangalore at Cozmo Bliss is usually performed as an outpatient procedure, which means you can go home the same day. It’s important to keep the dressings and ears clean. The dressing is usually removed after a week. You may need to wear an elastic headband for another 4 to 6 weeks, as per the advice by the surgeon. Some redness, swelling, or itching is expected and should subside over time.
Your surgeon will let you know if any of the stitches need to be removed. Once the bandages are off, you can go back to your normal routine. It usually takes up to three months to see the final results.
How To Take Care Of Your Ear After Surgery?
When you are recovering from ear surgery, it is important to take care of your ears to avoid any further damage. Here are some tips:
- Do not rest your ears on anything while you are sleeping, to avoid putting pressure on them.
- Avoid scratching or rubbing your ears while they are healing.
- Be careful while wearing and removing clothing; wear loose outfits for a while to avoid putting pressure on your ears.
