Autoplasty

Autoplasty is an aesthetic operation that improves the appearance of prominent ears. Other congenital ear anomalies can also be corrected with ear operations. After the surgery, you will have a perfect ear suitable for your face shape. Cartilage protrusions around the ear can be corrected with this aesthetic operation if the ear is curved inward. Since the aesthetic sutures are placed after the surgery, there is no scar in the ear.

How is Autoplasty Performed?

  • General anesthesia is applied to the patient before autoplasty.
  • The seams in the area where the ear fold will be formed are marked.
  • The cartilage is rasped and bent into shape.
  • The ear is shaped with the previously planned suture areas.
  • The ear surgery is completed by suturing the skin behind the ear.
  • After the surgery, a dressing is applied behind the hair band.
