Overview
Otoplasty in Antalya, or prominent ear surgery, reshapes and repositions the ears to bring them into better proportion with the head and face. It can refine the natural folds of the ear cartilage and gently set protruding ears closer to the head. Dr. Duygu Aksoy plans each ear individually, aiming for a balanced, natural appearance and good symmetry.
Is it right for you?
- You feel your ears protrude or look disproportionate
- You would like improved symmetry between the two ears
- You or your child have been self-conscious about ear shape
- You are in good general health with realistic expectations
How the procedure is performed
Otoplasty is usually performed under local anaesthesia with sedation for adults, or general anaesthesia for children, and typically takes around one to two hours. Dr. Aksoy reshapes the cartilage and places sutures through a discreet incision behind the ear to refine the fold and reposition the ear.
Recovery & timeline
A supportive head dressing is worn for the first few days, followed by a soft headband at night for several weeks. Most adults return to work within about a week. Swelling settles gradually and the new contour becomes clearer over the following weeks.
Results
Otoplasty aims to create a natural, balanced ear position with improved proportion, and results are typically long-lasting. Individual outcomes vary, and perfect symmetry between two ears is not guaranteed.
