Otoplasty (Ear Surgery)

Otoplasty, also known as ear pinning surgery, is a procedure that reshapes the cartilage of the ear to bring it closer to the head or reduce its size. The surgery can correct prominent ears, asymmetry, oversized ears or congenital ear deformities. The procedure is commonly performed on children but is equally suitable for adults.
