Laser otoplasty. Advantages
Traditional plastic surgery using a scalpel is inferior to the laser technique in many respects. Among them are:
- Due to the high temperature, the cartilage tissue is heated. The cartilage becomes elastic and easily takes on the desired shape.
- The effect of coagulation of blood vessels ensures the procedure without blood loss.
- Laser radiation has disinfecting properties.
- Non-contact impact on the auricle.
- High precision of intervention.
- Unnoticeable postoperative scars.
- Laser otoplasty reduces rehabilitation time by stimulating regeneration.
What is otoplasty and how to prepare for it?
Otoplasty is a type of surgery that is aimed at correcting various deficiencies in the human ear using various methods.
It is relevant for patients who are not satisfied with the appearance of their ears or have suffered severe injuries that have led to a change in the natural shape. Preparation for surgery is an important stage on which the future result will depend. It includes the following:
- within a few weeks you need to stop taking medications that promote the formation of blood clots and reduce blood clotting;
- stop drinking alcoholic beverages;
- smoking is undesirable;
- It is also necessary to avoid heavy loads and stress;
- If necessary, the doctor may prescribe additional medications.
Before otoplasty, you must undergo tests and medical examinations:
- general blood analysis;
- general urine analysis;
- analysis for infections (hepatitis, HIV, syphilis).
And only after the approval and consultation of the doctor, the date of the operation is set.
Laser otoplasty. Price
There are many plastic surgery clinics in Moscow. When choosing a clinic, pay attention to the quality of the services provided and the presence of positive reviews. With laser otoplasty, the price is affected by the volume of the procedure. Using anesthesia instead of local anesthesia also increases the cost of the operation.
What to choose, scalpel or laser? Only a specialist can answer this question. Dr. Isamutdinova Guzal Melisovna has experience in plastic surgery since 2010. Performed thousands of successful operations. Expert in the field of reconstructive and aesthetic plastic surgery.
Information on laser otoplasty can be obtained from your doctor during a free consultation. To make an appointment, call or fill out the feedback form on the website.
Ear otoplasty at ART-Clinic
Otoplasty in our clinic is performed by qualified specialists. The operation takes from 30 minutes to several hours. The sutures are self-absorbing, which avoids additional injury and stress. Upon completion of the manipulations, the patient is examined by a doctor, after which he is sent home (a repeat visit occurs the next day).
Otoplasty will help solve aesthetic problems:
- correction of protruding ears and macrotia;
- reducing asymmetry in shape and size;
- reduce earlobes after using tunnels;
- correction of birth defects and injuries.
Otoplasty is an operation with excellent cosmetic results.
Will there be traces of the intervention after ear surgery? Minor scarring is possible, although using a laser cutter reduces the likelihood of permanent scarring. But the advantage of otoplasty is that the remaining scars are hidden in the natural fold of the auricle and are not visible from the outside.
Therefore, if you have not decided to undergo surgery because of possible scars, do not worry; when correcting any defects, incisions are made on the back surface of the auricle. The operation does not have a negative effect on hearing, but on the contrary, it helps with a number of medical problems.
After surgery, swelling and loss of sensation are possible at the intervention site. But all these symptoms are normal for surgery, they soon go away.
Prominent ears: diagnosis and correction features
Prominent ears are a congenital feature of the outer ear in which the ears do not fit tightly to the bones of the head. The condition can be identified by parents during preschool age. To identify protruding ears in a child, it is enough to know the basic diagnostic criteria:
- The auricle does not fit tightly to the back of the head.
- Normally, the ears are located parallel to the temporal bone; with protruding ears, they are located at an angle.
- The distance between the edge of the ear and the head exceeds 2 cm.
- The angle between the temporal bone and the ear is more than 30 degrees.
Parents should also pay attention to some structural features of the outer ear. The absence of a characteristic relief (relatively smooth shells) may be an indirect sign that the child is developing protruding ears.
When to operate for protruding ears? Plastic surgeons recommend not to rush, but not to delay too much. Until about 7 years of age, the outer ear continues to develop, and it makes sense to wait until this age. By the age of seven, the relief and position of the auricle relative to the occipital and temporal bones are 90% formed; This age is considered optimal for ear surgery for protruding ears. It should be noted that there are no age restrictions, and a birth defect can be corrected at any age.
How to book an otoplasty consultation
The success of otoplasty is the professionalism and experience of the surgeon, the use of the latest equipment, as well as the patient’s responsible approach to following recommendations during the rehabilitation period; take seriously the advice that the doctor gives you to get the ideal plastic result.

Threads in the ears after otoplasty
23.11.21
Asked by: Marina
Good afternoon 6 years ago I had otoplasty (ear surgery). Yesterday I discovered that there were threads left behind my ears! For all 6 years they bothered me, sometimes they bled, sometimes they healed. I thought it was just crusts and wasn't worried. But yesterday I asked my mom to take a photo and it looks very similar to threads! Very worried. Help me please. How dangerous is it that the threads were in the ears for 6 years? Is it possible to remove them while saving the ears?
Answer:
Hello! When correcting protruding ears, only non-absorbable threads are used as suture material. As skin thickness or skin quality changes (decreased collagen), with age, or when the ear protrudes in the opposite direction, thread tendrils may pierce the skin and be felt. This is not dangerous, but it causes discomfort. The solution to this issue is to repeat the operation by placing sutures that fix the cartilage. I recommend scheduling a consultation with me. I will tell you everything in more detail at the reception.

Asked by: Dariga
My daughter (15 years old) has congenital atresia of the right ear; she needs plastic surgery to restore the auricle. I would like to know the options for restoration, it’s just important for us that the ear looks natural (from one’s own skin). Is such an operation possible for you? Since we are from Kazakhstan, does the duration of the recovery procedures matter, and how long do we need to stay in the city? Are there any conditions for living in the city on the part of the clinic? And if possible, can you write the approximate cost of the procedure?

Hello! We deal with similar problems, but since atresia can be complete or partial, there are certain operations aimed at eliminating it, they vary in complexity and volume, and the cost also varies! A face-to-face consultation is required.

Otoplasty

Asked by: Dmitry
Hello! Interested in otoplasty? But I have an unusual desire: I want to break the tip of my left ear. Only one left ear. The desired result can be said to be similar in appearance to professional injuries to wrestlers. It’s not a matter of aesthetics, so the degree of presentability of the final appearance does not play a big role; whether in the end the ear will protrude more than now, or, on the contrary, will be slightly pressed is not important at all. Is this possible? Thank you.
Answer:
Hello Dmitry! Very theoretically - yes, possible! But only after a face-to-face consultation.

What complications can you expect?
In pursuit of the best offer, women often turn to doctors with low qualifications. It is possible to have otoplasty in Moscow inexpensively, but often the price of such a decision is unpleasant consequences.
Normally, the patient can observe a decrease in skin sensitivity in the surgical area over the course of a month.
Sometimes the following complications occur:
- Formation of hematomas. The symptom will go away after 1-2 weeks. Smoking aggravates the process.
- Inflammatory processes in cartilage tissue. Typically for patients with problems with the immune system.
- The appearance of keloid scars. Most often this is an individual characteristic of the body.
- Soreness. Easily removed by taking painkillers.
- Asymmetry. The reason is the specialist’s lack of experience.
To avoid unpleasant consequences, contact a doctor with a good reputation!
Medical surgeons use the most effective new generation techniques and equipment in their practice. Regular visits to international conferences and borrowing the experience of foreign colleagues provide our doctors with a constant increase in professionalism and allow us to achieve the desired results even in the most difficult cases.
