No More Hiding Your Ears.

Otoplasty, or ear surgery, is also commonly referred to as ear pinning — a cosmetic procedure with the goal of repositioning and reorienting the ears to create less projection. Ears that are large or protrude can leave you feeling self-conscious. Overly large or protruding ears affect people of all ages, and ear surgery can be performed on both adults and children. Because the appearance of the ear is created by cartilage, ear surgery involves removing and reshaping the cartilage. The incisions are placed behind the ear and are not visible once healed.

What We Can Do for You.

Ear surgery is most commonly performed to correct ears that protrude or sit too far from the head, creating a more balanced and natural appearance. Dr. Afrooz can perform the procedure on one or both ears, tailoring the approach to each patient's unique anatomy and goals.

If you are unhappy with the look of your ears and want an aesthetic refinement, you may be a good candidate for cosmetic ear surgery. If you think you are a good candidate, call us today to schedule a consultation with Dr. Paul N. Afrooz - one of Miami's top facial plastic surgeons.

The Surgery Customized for You

Your ear surgery may take from one to three hours. The procedure is performed by making a small incision in the ear through which the cartilage can be accessed. During your ear pinning procedure, Dr. Afrooz will use a variety of ear shaping techniques to resculpt and reshape the ear structure so it can lie against the head, and is the right shape and size to be in balance with your features.

Time to Heal

After ear surgery, the ears are bandaged for approximately a week. For several weeks after your surgery, you will need to be careful when sleeping to prevent the ears from folding before they are completely healed. You will need to avoid playing any contact sports or other activities that could impact and cause trauma to the ears. Resting and protecting your newly reshaped ears are essential for a fast and easy recovery.

What Is the Cost of Ear Surgery?

The cost of ear surgery in Miami can vary. When the ear structure is misshapen, the surgical procedure is more extensive. If one or both ears are folded, wrinkled, tight, or overly bulky, these problems can be surgically corrected with the help of Dr. Afrooz. We accept most major credit cards, as well as financing through CareCredit, so you can pay for your ear surgery over time, in easy monthly payments.
