Otoplasty #19105

This case involves a female patient who underwent otoplasty. The procedure aimed to modify the ear structure for aesthetic alignment. The before image shows the patient's ears prior to surgery, characterized by a noticeable protrusion from the side of her head. The after image, taken 12 months post-operation, exhibits the ears with a closer alignment to the head, achieving a more typical auricular position. The surgical intervention focused on reshaping the cartilage to attain an ear position that aligns more flush with the side of the head. This adjustment is evident in the post-operative photograph where the ears appear less prominent and are positioned closer to the scalp, without altering their natural contour or size. Overall, this case highlights the physical changes achieved through otoplasty performed by skilled medical professionals within a 12-month period.
