Most of the issues addressed by otoplasty (oversized or protruding ears, for example), occur in both ears—meaning both will need to be fixed. Dr. Anthony’s aim during surgery is always to create results that are as symmetrical as possible. In cases where just one ear is to be treated, he’ll work to adjust its shape and size so it properly mirrors the untreated ear. When he creates your surgical plan, Dr. Anthony will tell you if one or both ears need to be corrected.
