Pinnaplasty
Why Pinnaplasty Is Important
Pinnaplasty is more than a cosmetic procedure; it can have a profound impact on a person’s self-esteem and overall confidence. Patients may seek pinnaplasty for various reasons, including: Correcting prominent or protruding ears. Restoring ear symmetry. Repairing ears damaged by trauma or previous surgeries. Addressing congenital deformities such as lop ear or cup ear.
Ear Pinning Surgery (Otoplasty)
Otoplasty addresses prominent or protruding ears by repositioning them closer to the head, creating a more natural contour.
Procedure: Through incisions made behind the ear, Dr. Jérôme adjusts the cartilage to reshape and reposition the ears. Sutures are strategically placed to maintain the new position, ensuring minimal visible scarring. This procedure is ideal for both children and adults seeking a lasting solution for prominent ears.
Revision Ear Surgery
Patients dissatisfied with the results of a previous ear surgery may opt for revision pinnaplasty to improve appearance or address complications.
- Procedure: Revision surgery requires careful evaluation to identify issues from the prior procedure. Dr. Jérôme employs advanced techniques to refine the ear’s shape, symmetry, or position, ensuring the desired outcome.
Earlobe Repair
Torn, stretched, or gauged earlobes can be repaired with a quick and effective procedure.
Procedure: Dr. Jérôme skillfully reconstructs the earlobe by excising damaged tissue and suturing it for a natural appearance. The procedure is minimally invasive and can often be performed under local anesthesia.
