How long is otoplasty recovery?

Most patients return to normal activities within 7–10 days. A protective headband is worn for a few weeks to support healing. Initial swelling settles within the first week, and final results refine over 3–6 months.

Will otoplasty leave visible scars?

Incisions are placed behind the ear in the natural fold so scars are virtually invisible once healed. Our surgical technique prioritizes minimal, well-hidden scarring that continues to fade over time.

How long do otoplasty results last?

Otoplasty results are permanent. Once the cartilage is reshaped and repositioned, the change is lasting — the procedure provides a definitive correction for prominent or protruding ears.
