otoplasty. Working closely with you, he will develop a treatment plan specific to your

needs that can best accomplish you desired look. While otoplasty may be performed

at any age after four, it is often recommended that it be performed early on to help

Your best otoplasty new york surgery may be performed with either local anesthesia

and sedation or with general anesthesia. General anesthesia is commonly used for

young children while local anesthesia and sedation may be used for older children and

adults. An average of two to three hours is typically needed to perform the surgery.

Incisions are commonly placed in the back of the ear, resulting in small, well-

concealed scars. Several techniques may be used to treat the ears. The cartilage may

be sculpted to a more desirable shape and bent back toward the head with stitches

used to help maintain the new shape.
