Otoplasty with Dr. Weinstein: Here’s What to Expect!

Some individuals may be dissatisfied with how their ears look; it could be their size, shape or orientation. They may have obviously misshapen, protruding or abnormally large ears. Dr. Larry Weinstein caters to men, women, children who would like to improve the appearance of their ears through a New Jersey otoplasty.

During the Procedure
An otoplasty could last for 1 to 3 hours. Youngsters are often placed under general anesthesia while adults are often placed under a local anesthetic coupled with a sedative.

The incision is often made behind the ears, exposing the cartilage and later repositioned depending on the desired appearance. The incision is typically closed down with non-removable sutures or stitches. Otoplasty could be either unilateral or bilateral.

Otoplasty Recovery
On a whole, it will most likely take about a week to be able to recover from otoplasty surgery. During the first few days, you will be instructed to consistently wear a bandage around your head. This will ensure that ears are healed in their new position.
