Chicago Ear surgery doctors & providers
Chicago plastic surgeons treat asymmetrical or protruding ears with a surgery known as otoplasty. This surgery is quite common among teens and young adults who are self conscious about the angle of the ears in proportion to the head.
Chicago surgeons who perform otoplasty will discuss the risks and benefits of otoplasty in a consultation specific to your needs.
Ear surgery begins with a small incision behind the ear, in the natural crease where the ear meets the head. The extra cartilage is carefully removed and the ear is sutured back together. Scars are normally not visible with this surgery because they are hidden by the ear and the hair.
