Prominent Ear Surgery

A pinback otoplasty is designed to setback prominent ears. This operation is performed on children after the age of 4. There is no older age limit to when this procedure can be performed. When performing this operation, the ears are setback closer to the head and the normal fold in the ear is recreated.

The incisions are hidden in the back of the ears and special stitches are placed to roll the ear folds back and setback the ears. There are many different positions for the stitches to be placed depending on the appearance of the ears and the desired outcome. During your personal consultation, Dr. Larson will discuss the surgical options and outcomes available for you.
