Many people feel self-conscious about the shape or appearance of their ears.
Children may be subject to teasing or ridicule, and adults may find that their hair styling options are limited. Thus correction of protruding ears is frequently done for women, men, and children over the age of five. The procedure may be performed under either local or general anesthesia on an outpatient basis. The contour of the ear cartilage is altered through a concealed incision, improving the shape and position of the ears. The procedure takes about an hour.
