Otoplasty(unilateral or bilateral) è un intervento di chirurgia estetica volto alla correzione dei principali inestetismi delle orecchie, come le orecchie a sventola, definite con termine medico “orecchie ad ansa”, difetto congenito che colpisce circa il 1% della popolazione mondiale. L’Otoplasty surgery migliora la forma delle orecchie, migliorando l’armonia del viso e aumentando l’autostima del paziente. Questa procedura consente di correggere difetti presenti dalla nascita o post-traumatici mediante il rimodellamento della cartilagine dei cartilage of the auricles.
The ideal candidate for otoplasty surgery is a male or female patient with an aesthetic ear anomaly. Protruding or looping ears cause complexes in many adolescents but also in adults. Children over the age of 6 (the period in which the anatomical development of the ear cartilage ends) and adults can undergo the operation. Otoplasty can also be carried out following traumas as in the case of rugby players, in which repeated blows inflame the perichondrium (connective tissue membrane that covers the cartilage) with consequent onset of post-traumatic edema, swelling and need to intervene surgically to reshape the cartilage. Therefore otoplasty is recommended in the presence of:

Complications in otoplasty are rare. Among these, hematomas may require removal of the clot between the skin and cartilage. Cartilage infections are rather rare events and in any case can be easily controlled with antibiotic therapy.
