Otoplasty, sometimes referred to as ear pinning, is a surgical procedure used to improve the look of the ears. The ear cartilage is realigned during the surgery, and any extra skin or tissue that could give the appearance of being uneven is removed. By using this procedure, the prominence of the ears can be reduced or eliminated, giving the rest of the facial features a more harmonious balance.

Ear correction surgery is a cosmetic procedure that involves changing the size or form of the ears, or pinning them back if they protrude.
Ear surgery is generally safe, and most individuals are satisfied with the results. There are, however, concerns to consider, and they may be costly.
An otoplasty, also known as pinnaplasty, is a procedure that involves pinning the ears back. It's commonly done on youngsters and young teenagers, although it can also be done on adults.
Depending on the patient's age, pinnaplasty is performed under local or general anaesthesia. The procedure normally takes between one and two hours. A cut will be made in the back of the ear, and some skin will be peeled away from the cartilage. The ear is moved closer to the skull by changing the form of the cartilage. The symmetry of the ears can also be corrected by the doctor. Stitches are used to seal the incisions, and a dressing is applied.
You might want to seek ear correction:
If your ear or ears protrude too far from your head
Your ears are disproportionately huge in comparison to the size of your skull
You're not happy with the results of a previous ear surgery
