Commonly Asked Questions About Ear Surgery

How much does ear surgery cost?

Costs vary based on the specific procedure. We offer detailed estimates post-consultation and support various payment and financing options.

Will the results of ear surgery last?

The results of ear surgery are typically long-lasting, with minimal changes due to aging. If necessary, revision surgery is an option for post-injury alterations.

How old should my child be to consider otoplasty?

The ideal age is around 6-7 years, when the ear structure is developed yet pliable, also helping to minimize school-age teasing.

Do I need to have both ears done or just one?

While many cases involve reshaping both ears for uniformity, individual cases may require attention to just one ear, depending on the specific condition.
