Otoplasty in Ginza

At the cosmetic surgery clinic of Dr. Cuvo we see patients who many times have ears which are sticking out. These patients seem to suffer much of their life with some embarrassment. There is no need to suffer this as there is technique called Otoplasty. This cosmetic technique is used to reform the ears.

Otoplasty also know as ear pinning (or ear shaping with plastic surgery) brings the ears back to close to the head or reshapes the ears. This improves the appearance of the ear, face and head.

The doctor can reshape the ears if they are too far sticking out. This is done through an invisible incision behind the ear so there is no visible scar. This is a simple procedure which can be done as an outpatient. You do not need to go to sleep or have general anesthesia.

Occasionally we see patients who only need one ear done for Otoplasty. The ear can be reshaped to match the other ear in many cases. The same amount of time is for healing. The cost of Otoplasty is reasonable but will depend on how much time will be needed and other considerations.

For recovery all you need to do is wear a head band much like the one skiers wear for one week. In Otoplasty there typically no stitches to remove and healing where you can go back to work is usually only a day or so. Ear reshaping (otoplasty) is one of the many cosmetic procedures we perform at the Cuvo Clinic in Ginza Tokyo.
