Cosmetic Ear Shaping and Reconstruction
Ear shape issues can be genetic or caused by birth defects – an estimated 30% of children are born with some type of ear malformation. Many people have very functional, well-formed ears but they may protrude or draw attention due to their size. Due to their position and adornments, ears are prone to injuries and trauma. Cosmetic surgery can be a solution to repair congenital, genetic or trauma concerns to obtain an attractive ear shape. Our cosmetic ear shaping procedures include:
Kids, teens and adults can be candidates for ear plastic surgery. Some cosmetic procedures are best performed early in life, while other cosmetic problems with ears may not occur until later in life. Dr. Preminger is a highly respected plastic surgeon that offers ear reshaping surgery for patients of all ages at her practice in Manhattan.
If you are unhappy with your ear shape or you have a child with protruding ears, cosmetic surgery may be an option.
