Otoplasty procedure: how it’s done
  • Consultation:

Your ear reshaping journey begins with a detailed consultation, where CosmeSurge’s plastic surgeon examines the ear structure, discusses your aesthetic goals, and recommends the most suitable technique.

  • Anesthesia:

Otoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s age and the complexity of the case.

  • Incision and Reshaping:

Small incisions are made behind the ear to access the cartilage. The surgeon reshapes, folds, or removes excess cartilage to bring the ears closer to the head or correct deformities.

  • Closing the Incision:

After the procedure, the surgeon will close the incisions with fine sutures that minimize visible scarring.

  • Bandaging:

A light dressing is applied to support the new ear shape while it heals.

Typically, otoplasty surgery takes 1 to 2 hours and is performed on an outpatient basis.

Recovery & aftercare

Recovery after ear reshaping surgery in Dubai is generally smooth and straightforward.

  • Downtime: Mostly, patients resume routine activities within 5–7 days.
  • Bandages: You’ll wear a protective bandage for a few days to support healing.
