Ear Auricle Reconstruction – is a type of otoplastic surgeries targeted at aesthetic and functional reconstruction of visible part of the ear (also known as auricle). Procedure allows to remove congenital and acquired ear defects and has very few limitations. Cosmetic surgeons at Alpha Cell medical centre apply contemporary minimally invasive techniques, prioritizing patient’s comfort and well-being.
Ear reconstruction by the means of cosmetic surgery is typicall used in such cases:
Ear surgery is performed by the patient’s desire, if they are dissatisfied with ear shape, position, etc.
Otoplasty contraindications:
Surgeon takes each clinical case in individual order. Thorough examination is key to success, and if any contraindications are discovered the surgery is either delayed until patient is stabilized or is forbidden.
The exact technique depends on specific case, though typically it involves excess skin or cartilage removal, addition of cartilage using implants or autotransplants, and surgical correction until symmetry and desired shape are achieved.
If required, ear connection angle can also be changed, as it is done in prominent ear correction surgery. In case of total ear auricle abscence it is constructed with sillicone implants or patients own cartilage taken from othe body parts.
