What is microtia?
Microtia is a congenital condition where the external ear (pinna) is underdeveloped. It can affect one or both ears and varies in severity.
Who is a candidate for microtia-pinnaplasty?
Candidates include anyone with microtia, typically identified at birth, who wishes to improve ear appearance and structural function. A detailed consultation with our specialists will help determine if pinnaplasty is the right option.
What can I expect during the recovery period?
Post-surgery, patients typically experience mild to moderate discomfort, which can be managed with medication. Recovery protocols may include wearing a headband and attending regular follow-up visits to monitor healing.
How long does the surgery take?
The duration of the surgery depends on the complexity of the case but generally lasts a few hours. Patients may return home the same day or may require a short hospital stay.
