Otoplasty in Bahrain
At Stanford Clinic, we understand that the appearance of your ears can significantly impact your confidence and self-esteem.
Otoplasty, or ear reshaping surgery, is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to correct prominent or uneven ears, providing a more balanced and natural appearance.
Our skilled team of plastic surgeons is committed to providing outstanding results through personalized care and attention.
What is Otoplasty?
Otoplasty is a operative procedure aimed at reshaping the ears to address concerns such as excessive prominence, asymmetry, or deformities.
Suitable for both children and adults, it is especially beneficial for those looking to achieve a more harmonious and visually appealing ear shape.
Whether addressing congenital conditions or cosmetic concerns, otoplasty can provide a significant improvement.
Why Choose Otoplasty?
Prominent or misshapen ears can affect self-esteem and lead to social anxiety or self-consciousness. Otoplasty can offer a solution by:
Correcting Prominent Ears: Repositioning ears that protrude significantly from the head, creating a more natural contour.
Balancing Asymmetrical Ears: Addressing ear size or shape differences to achieve symmetry.
Repairing Deformities: Correcting congenital or injury-related ear deformities.
Types of Otoplasty
1. Ear Augmentation | 2. Ear Pinning | 3. Ear Reduction |
Ear augmentation can be performed on individuals with underdeveloped or excessively small ears to increase the size and enhance the appearance of the outer ear. This surgery reshapes the ears for a more harmonious appearance. | Ear pinning, or otoplasty is designed to reposition the ears closer to the head. This procedure is perfect for individuals with prominently protruding ears, creating a more natural and balanced facial profile. | For patients experiencing macrotia, where the ears are unusually large, ear reduction surgery can be performed to decrease their size. This procedure helps to achieve a more harmonious and proportional look by reducing the dimensions of the ears. |

The Otoplasty Procedure
The otoplasty procedure involves several key steps:
1- Consultation and Planning
During your initial consultation, our skilled surgeons will evaluate your ear structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine the most suitable approach for your otoplasty.
On the basis of your specific needs we will make a customized surgical plan that addresses any concerns and sets clear expectations for the outcome.
2- Surgical Technique
Anesthesia: The type of anesthesia used for otoplasty depends on the procedure’s complexity and the patient’s preference. We offer both local anesthesia with sedation and general anesthesia as options.
Incisions: To minimize visible scarring, the surgeon makes discreet incisions, usually behind the ear or within natural folds.
Reshaping: Excess cartilage or skin is removed or repositioned to achieve the desired ear shape. In some cases, cartilage may be folded or secured with stitches.
Closure: The incisions are carefully closed with fine sutures, and a bandage is applied to support the newly shaped ears during the initial healing phase.
3- Recovery and Aftercare
Post-Operative Instructions: You will receive detailed guidelines on how to care for your ears during recovery. This includes keeping the ears clean, managing discomfort, and following specific activity restrictions.
Swelling and Bruising: It’s common to experience mild bruising and swelling, which usually subside within a few weeks. Using pain medication and cold compresses can help alleviate any discomfort.
Follow-Up Visits: You will have regular follow-up appointments to track your progress, remove sutures, and ensure proper healing. Our team is here to provide continuous support and answer any questions or concerns you may have.
