Prominent or forward-facing ears can distract attention from high-value facial features and can be easily rectified.

Otoplasty is an outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia with sedation.
As each patient’s needs are different, the length varies, but you can generally expect your otoplasty to take between 1-3 hours. Once your anesthesia and sedation have taken effect, Dr. Davis will create an incision in the natural crease at the back of your ear or within the folds of your ear, depending on the goals of your procedure.
He will remove or manipulate portions of the ears’ tissue and skin to create the desired results before closing your incisions. He will place dressings over your ears to protect them from infection and prevent damage to your results. As it will take some time for the sedation to wear off, you will need to make prior arrangements for someone close to you to drive you home after surgery.
